If you mean syncing the loop and song speeds, there's no automatic way to achieve this. It's trial and error. Put a note down on the pattern playing the sample at the speed you want and tweak the song speed, BPM and instrument fine-tune values until the loop is perfect.

You have 2 posibilities:

1) start a song with a loop.-
So, load a loop and change the lengh of the pattern (where Milkytracker reads "Len. 40") for fit the speed and BMP of your track. ( Use raina's explanation too)

2) Insert a loop into a ready song.
The video tutorial cover that problem. Useful when you need to change the time lenght of a loop without changing the pitch.
