Hi Everyone!
I’m happy to share that in Storyline 360 (Build 3.86.32028.0), we fixed a bug that some of you were running into:
- Fixed: Video loop only happens once in Storyline 360 (Build 3.85.31840.0)
From here, all you need to do is update Storyline 360 in your Articulate 360 desktop app!

Create a new Slide Master. Put your video on the Master slide and then again on two layers.
Create triggers on the base layer, layer 1, and layer 2 to:

Thank you - I really appreciate your help. I ended up doing that but it was a BIG pain because I had different videos for every slide. So the whole project took me a lot longer than I anticipated. It was just one of those days where everything snowballed and I saw 4 am roll around. I am trying to understand why the trigger play media when media completes doesn't work. Curious
Found out this is a bug in the newest version. Version 3.84.31722.0 does not have this problem as trigger play video when video completes works.
Thank you for this post! I thought I was going crazy because I had created a framework/template that uses looping video that is now broken. I knew that it worked once upon a time and couldn't figure out what happened. Hopefully this bug gets patched and fixed quickly, as now I can't use this template.
Hi Johnathan!
So sorry to hear you've been affected by this issue as well!
As Robin shared, our development team has this behavior logged as a software bug in Storyline 360 version 3.85.31840.0. Not to worry! I've linked this discussion to the bug report and will provide updates as soon as a fix is in place. In the meantime, as a workaround, we suggest:

Thank you for your patience. I'm sorry if this has been slowing you down!
Hi,
What I also experience is, that the option to untick "Hide other slide layers" does not work correctly either. Meaning that if I set up my layers as described above by Steven, as soon as it jumps to layer 2, it makes everything that is on other layers invisible.
I hope this problem is solved quickly as the workaround (copying videos to multiple layers) makes the slides unnecessary large.
The bug seems to happen only with longer videos. Example attached!
I have the same problem with loops in sl, this didn't happen before. Having 2 copies of the same video is not practical on large projects.
Hopefully will be solved soon.
