Say you've got a 30 second clip that you want to loop.
Slice it at 15 seconds, move the first part to the end. Butt the two clips together, put a 15 frame dissolve between them.
The clip will appear to run almost seamlessly across the blip from the end frame to the start frame. The dissolve in the middle helps hid the fact it's a loop.
This is a fun exercise to find the best place to break the clip. I do this all the time for DVD menus.

This is my standard sigfile so do not take it personally: "For crying out loud, read the freakin' manual."
