IDK if this should be a bug report or a feature request, and I feel like in the past it didn't work this way, but currently (2022.4) playback doesn't stop at the end of a clip with the motion effect when you are in the motion effect editor. Since it just keeps playing you lose the effect you were editing in the editor and have to move the playhead back to the clip with the effect in the timeline, which loses you time and is annoying to do again and again if you don't stop the playback yourself before the playhead leaves the clip. I would expect playback to be locked to the clip similar to how it works when in the effect editor/effect mode.
EDIT: I guess this is the expected behavior so I'd like to suggest this as a feature!
I don't remember if this is the case - Next time I open up the ee I will check.
For the time being are you able to create a new avid user profile and see if the system behaves in the same way?

How about using [Play Loop] instead of [Play]?
