+
+- The `vagi` format extends the standard .vag header by changing the signature
+  to `VAGi` and adding the following fields:
+  - the file's interleave size at offset `0x08-0x0B` (little endian);
+  - the loop start offset in bytes-per-channel, if any, at offset `0x14-0x17`
+    (little endian);
+  - the file's channel count at offset `0x1E`.
+
+- The `spu`, `vag`, `spui` and `vagi` formats support setting a loop start
+  point. If the input file is either a .wav file with sampler metadata (`smpl`
+  chunk) or in a format FFmpeg supports parsing cue/chapter markers from, the
+  first marker will be used as the loop point by default. The `-l` and `-n`
+  options can be used to manually set a loop point or ignore the one present in
+  the input file respectively.
+
 - ~~The `strspu` format encodes the input file's audio track as a series of~~
   ~~custom .str chunks (type ID `0x0001` by default) holding interleaved~~
   ~~SPU-ADPCM data in the same format as `spui`, rather than XA-ADPCM. As .str~~
   ~~chunks do not require custom XA subheaders, a file with standard 2048-byte~~
   ~~sectors that does not need any special handling will be generated.~~ *This*
   *format has not yet been implemented.*
+
 - The `strv` format disables audio altogether and is equivalent to `strspu` on
   an input file with no audio track.
+
 - The `sbs` format (used in some System 573 games) consists of a series of
   concatenated BS frames, each padded to the size specified by the `-a` option
   (the default setting is 8192 bytes), with no additional headers besides the BS
