I have added an audio to my video using Audio -> Select Track option but it plays for the length of the audio. How can i repeat or add another track that plays after the first one. I want to play some audio throughout the video?
It seems that there is no option to repeat the same audio track on Avidemux. I workarounded this by using another free app to modify my audio file to be repeated enough and taking the exported audio file as an audio track on Avidemux. Audacity is good to do this.
