How do I loop the rendered file?

I'm confused. I have loop turned on, and the file loops perfectly when in vegas. But when I rendder it the rendered file doesnt loop. It just plays once and stops. How do I get the rendered file to loop?

hmm, that's not what I'm asking.
I know how to copy and paste. Let me be clearer:

I have a file in vegas. It is a perfect little loop.
I want to export it as a real video file, that automatically loops.
So the viewer would download the 150k realvideo file, and it will loop ad infinitum.

I know there must be a way to force a loop, because I've seen other files on the web that looped. usually they were windows media if I recall correctly, but I didn't choose the loop option. It looped automatically. I was wondering how to do that. In the meantime I exported the file into flash and looped the flash file. But now my file size is a lot bigger then I would like. the ideal situation would be to loop the video file directly, and automatically. Anyone out there know how to do this?

What you probably saw was a regular video file that was embedded into the web page and instructed to loop. When putting video on a web page you can write the html to embed the file and you can also, in the code, give it a loop command. But this would not be done in Vegas. -Shon

Here is some good info on embedding a video file:
