...hmmm, I guess it doesn't say it outright, but the solution is 
implied:  basically, the right inlet accepts a number that is the frame 
you want to display...consequently, you need to add something like a 
[metro] and [counter] to get a series of numbers...if you say [metro 
33] (which outputs a bang every 33 ms), then it'll play at 30fps...

...also, you can just sent a [auto $1< message to the left inlet:  this 
then tells the object to play a new frame for everytime it goes thru 
the render loop...and of course, this render loop speed is set by 
sending the [frame $1< message to the [gemwin]:  don't make it faster 
than your computer can handle!

I've attached a barebones example showing the first:  check out 
[gemwin] help for the latter...
