How to loop slideshow in iMac photos to export

Using iMac Golden 27. I created a slideshow in Photos and exported it to a flash drive. Perfect other than one major issue....I'm unable to loop it. In searches there seems to be a loop option under customize in Photos but I don't see the customize option either. Time sensitive so assistance appreciated. Note...I did click the square arrow button prior (directly underneath the slideshow on the left so that it turned blue), but that didn't work either. Thank you.

Hi there

please try this

Since the video is already on your flash drive, plug it into the device you plan to use for the presentation and set the player to repeat:

On a Mac (QuickTime Player): Open the video. In the top menu bar, go to View > Loop.
On a Windows PC (Windows Media Player / Movies & TV): Look at the playback controls at the bottom of the screen. Click the Repeat icon (usually two arrows forming a circle).
On a TV: If you are plugging the flash drive directly into a TV, press the Menu or Tools button on the TV remote while the video is playing. Look for "Playback Mode," "Repeat," or "Loop One."

Thank you. I didn't export it to quick player but will try that. For the event it will be on a tv so I'll take a look at the remote at the facility.
