Try putting the part you want looped into a movie clip and insert that movie clip with the rest of your piece.

That way the movie clip is on its own indepent timeline.

Well…if its a splash page, the mc runs the duration of the page.

You could try putting a stop(); at the end of the main timeline.  
This will stop the main timeline but keep and mc running

Or, in your last frame, put gotoAndPlay(38);
