I want to save a 15 frame gif file to a video avi. The global information is defined as 0 repeats. The gif file runs and stops on frame 15, but the avi runs thru frames 1 thru 15 and stops the display showing frame 1.
How can I stop the avi on frame 15?
gif to avi w/ no loop

This is normal. Setting it as video when previewed to media player will always stop showing frame 1.How can I stop the avi on frame 15?
Workaround: Try to copy the frame 15 as your frame 1 and then export it as AVI then play it. Hope this helps.

Is this true? If so, this might be accomplished by setting the global information loop to a -1. How can I do this with Ulead Gif Animator 5?
The AnimPlay method plays an AVI clip in an Animation object.
The argument to AnimPlay is a 3-element array as follows:
[1] Repeat integer
[2] From integer
[3] To integer
Repeat specifies the number of times the clip is repeated. A value of -1 causes the clip to be repeated indefinitely.
From is a 0-based index of the frame where playing begins and must be less than 65536. A value of zero means begin with the first frame in the AVI clip
To is a 0-based index of the frame where playing ends and must be less than 65536. A value of -1 means end with the last frame in the AVI clip
The last frame remains displayed until the clip is unloaded using AnimClose or until another clip is loaded.

clips
I don't know how to set that in the global informatin area of GIF 5 because the option is only for looping whether you set the number of loops or make it infinite.
Why don't you just duplicate the last frame and move it to the first frame and then export it to avi and then later add it with the other clips. I guess this will show you the first and last frame to be the same and will stop with that frame when previewed.

Tweaking the global properties only affects GIF animations. This has no effect when you save as an AVI file.
The player you are viewing the AVI with is going back to the first frame once it's done playing. GA 5 has nothing to do with your problem. Check the settings of the software you are playing the AVI with.
If this really bugs you, make the very first frame all black...
