> SetShapeXmaNumLoops

Sets the number of XMA context loops.

## Syntax

```cpp theme={null}
HRESULT SetShapeXmaNumLoops(  
         SHAPE_XMA_CONTEXT* context,  
         UINT32 numLoops  
)  
```

### Parameters

*context*   \_Inout\_\
Type: [SHAPE\_XMA\_CONTEXT](https://docs.xbox.com/reference/audio/shapexmacontext/structs/shape_xma_context.md)\*

Pointer to a [SHAPE\_XMA\_CONTEXT](https://docs.xbox.com/reference/audio/shapexmacontext/structs/shape_xma_context.md) object.

*numLoops*   \
Type: UINT32

Number of loops, from zero to `SHAPE_XMA_MAX_LOOP_COUNT` (254). `SHAPE_XMA_INFINITE_LOOP_COUNT` (255) specifies continuous looping.

### Return value

Type: HRESULT

HRESULT success or error code.

## Remarks

For guidance on XMA context loops, see [Guidelines for using SRC for PCM and XMA data](https://docs.xbox.com/build/console-features/audio/overviews/acp-overview.md#ID4EUPAC) in [ACP overview](https://docs.xbox.com/build/console-features/audio/overviews/acp-overview.md).

To get the current number of loops, use [GetShapeXmaNumLoops](https://docs.xbox.com/reference/audio/shapexmacontext/functions/getshapexmanumloops.md).

For more information, see the [XMA](https://docs.xbox.com/build/console-features/audio/overviews/shape-overview.md#ID4EYD) section of [Overview of SHAPE](https://docs.xbox.com/build/console-features/audio/overviews/shape-overview.md).
