How to Loop a Director Movie to Play Continuously

If you are creating a Director movie to be displayed in a kiosk or on a Web page, for example, you might want the movie to start over or replay automatically each time it finishes. You can do this by looping it so that it will play continuously. These instructions apply to Macromedia Director 5.0. Procedures for other versions may vary.
