You'll need to re-download the stplot.R source file, which now has a
do.repeat argument, and then run:

library(spacetime)
source("/tmp/stplot.R") # or wherever it is
library(animation)
saveGIF({
 stplot(sp_time_slice, animate=0.01, col.regions=bpy.colors(),
    names.attr = paste("Whatever was measured at",
      format(index(sp_time_slice@time), "%H:%M")),
    cex=2,cuts=seq(r[1],r[2],length.out=11), do.repeat=FALSE)
})

this also solves the title issue you mentioned.
