Getting iPad to loop or repeat a video

So, my company just purchased an iPad and we are wanting to use it to loop a nice video at trade shows. As of now, we need to keep hitting the play button after the video plays once through. Wondering if there is a work around anyone knows of where we get the video to loop or repeat consecutively.

It worked ok for 1 video, then weird things would happen. It wouldn't recognize all 6 videos I have, just selected ones. Truly flaky behavior. With LoopyLoopy the interface is set up through iTunes to implicitly recognize videos you want it to play. To do this you have to use the File Sharing feature in iTunes. Here are the directions:
