It's not one clip, all clips [quicktime/photo-jpg codec] don't play 
properly. As I wrote before, Gem is able to play the 'loop' while in 
[auto $1 (lft inlet of pix_film] mode, but its playback stutters. Using 
the left inlet of pix_film gives me a smooth playback but a stuttering 
last frame.

It has been a while for me too. But I believe that the codec 
quicktime/photojpg was recommended.
