Why isn't path integral of H-field 0?

[yosimba2000]

So for an infinite plane of current, current traveling in the X direction, the magnetic field everywhere above the plane is going clockwise, and the m. field below the plane is going counterclockwise.

So the path integral is Integral of H dot dl = Current Enclosed

Why, in this video, does the path integral NOT equal 0?



Isnt the top path going from Y = -L to L, and the bottom path going from Y = -L to L?

So you get ∫H ⋅ dl = ∫H_{ydirection⋅} ⋅ dy_ydirection + ∫H_{negativeydirection⋅} ⋅ dy_{negativeydirection}

Then you get Hy, y from -L to L, plus Hy, y from L to -L?

So you get H(L - -L) + H(-L - L), and you get 2HL-2HL = 0?

No, the magnetic field is parallel to the sheet of current both above and below the plane.

Because the loop encloses a non-zero current.

Isnt the top path going from Y = -L to L, and the bottom path going from Y = -L to L?

Ampere's laws states that
$$\oint\mathbf{H}\cdot d\mathbf{l}=I_{enclosed}$$
Using ##K## to represent the surface current density, this becomes
$$H_{x}L+(-H_{x})(-L)=2H_{x}L=KL$$
So the magnitude of the field is
$$H_{x}=\frac{K}{2}$$

I think I see it. I was trying to add the magnitudes without account for the directions.
