It is possible that your animation was generated as 'continuous' in which
case there are two extra frames appended to it. Try running VT using
the 'CONT' switch ie. "VT CONT MYANIM.ANM"
Unfortunately VT is not bug-free -- sometimes the first frame becomes
corrupted as the animation loops. I'm playing most of my anims from
MediaPoint which does a good job, including transitions. Apparently there
are some other Anim7 apps out there... I guess it calls for some
'research' :)
