Single play Animated GIF Files

Could someone please tell me how i can stop the looping of a gif when i export it in Adobe Media Encoder?

I have designed an 8 second composition in After Effects and I want to save it as an animated GIF but only want it to play once, not continuously loop. Is there a way of doing this?

Thanks

I do not think there is a way to disable looping in AME. You definitely can within Photoshop however.

I'm asking the same question here...  So, I'd have to export the Animated GIF, then open in Photoshop and find settings to loop/not loop?

Import the animated gif into Photoshop
File / Export / Save for Web / Format:gif / looping options: one!
