-Audio looping allows media to play continuously by restarting from the beginning when it reaches the end. When you set a block's duration longer than the audio length and enable looping, CE.SDK automatically repeats the audio to fill the entire duration. This makes looping perfect for background music, ambient soundscapes, and repeating sound effects.

+Audio looping allows media to play continuously by restarting from the beginning when it reaches the end. When you set a block's duration longer than the audio length and enable looping, CE.SDK automatically repeats the audio to fill the entire duration. Server-side looping configuration is useful for batch processing, automated content generation, and preparing audio compositions for later export.

+This guide covers how to enable and disable audio looping, control looping behavior with duration settings, and loop trimmed audio segments using the headless Node.js engine.
+
+## Setting Up the Engine
+
+First, we initialize the CE.SDK engine in headless mode for server-side processing.

+The headless engine provides full API access to audio looping operations without browser dependencies.
 
 ## Understanding Audio Looping
 
-When looping is enabled on an audio block, CE.SDK repeats the audio content from the beginning each time it reaches the end. This continues until the block's duration is filled. For example, a 5-second audio clip with looping enabled and a 15-second duration will play three complete times.

-The loop transitions are seamless—CE.SDK jumps immediately from the end back to the beginning without gaps or clicks. The audio content itself determines how smooth the loop sounds. Audio files designed for looping (with matching start and end points) create perfectly seamless loops, while non-looping audio may have audible transitions.

 ## Creating Audio Blocks
 
 ### Adding Audio Content
 
-Audio blocks use file URIs to reference audio sources. We create the block, add it to the page, and set the audio source.

 Before working with audio properties like duration or trim, we load the audio resource to ensure metadata is available.

 Loading the resource provides access to the total audio duration, which helps calculate how many times the audio will loop given a specific block duration.
 
 ### Setting Looping State
 
-We enable looping by calling `setLooping()` with `true`. When combined with a block duration longer than the audio length, the audio repeats to fill the full duration.

+This trims the audio to a 2-second segment (from 1.0s to 3.0s of the source), then loops that segment four times to fill an 8-second duration. This technique is useful for creating rhythmic loops or extracting repeatable portions from longer audio files.
 
 ### Choosing Loop Points
 
 For seamless loops, choose trim points where the audio content flows naturally from end to beginning. Audio with consistent rhythm, tone, and volume at trim boundaries creates the smoothest loops. Abrupt changes in content or volume at loop boundaries create noticeable transitions.
 
+## Exporting the Scene
+
+After configuring audio looping, we save the scene for later use or rendering. The scene file preserves all looping settings and can be loaded in any CE.SDK environment.
+
+```typescript highlight-export
+  // Save the scene as a .scene file for later use or rendering
+  console.log('\nSaving scene...');
+
+  const sceneString = await engine.scene.saveToString();
+
+  // Ensure output directory exists
+  if (!existsSync('output')) {
+    mkdirSync('output');
+  }
+
+  // Save to file
+  writeFileSync('output/audio-looping.scene', sceneString);
+  console.log('Exported to output/audio-looping.scene');
+```
+
+The exported `.scene` file contains all audio blocks with their looping configurations, ready for rendering with CE.SDK Renderer or further editing.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+**Audio not looping**: Verify looping is enabled with `engine.block.isLooping()` and that the block duration exceeds the audio length. Looping only takes effect when the duration allows multiple repetitions.
+
+**Audible gaps at loop points**: Choose trim points where the audio naturally transitions from end to beginning. Audio with matching start and end volume levels creates smoother loops.
+
+**Resource not loaded**: Always call `engine.block.forceLoadAVResource()` before accessing duration properties. Without loading the resource first, metadata like total duration won't be available.
