The Audio loop property is used for setting or returning whether an audio should start playing over again when it is finished or not

Syntax: 

  • Return the loop property:
audioObject.loop
  • Set the loop property:
audioObject.loop = true | false

Property Values:

  • true | false: It is used to specify whether the audio should start playing over again, every time it is finished or not. It is false by default.

Return: The Audio loop property returns a Boolean true if the audio starts playing over again, every time it is finished, else, it returns false.
