If you duplicate the 348 layers, you can just as well display them for twice as long (ie, use a 5 frame/sec rate instead or 10frames/sec). Visually the effect is the same. Of course this will slow down the earth (you have to do it n 12 2-hours frames), but since it is likely somewhat small that wouldn't make much difference.
Another solution is to do two 348-layers animations, with one having a half-image offset, and then interleave them.
You can also duplicate the 348 layers by just interleaving them with layers from a duplicate of the image.
There is no real 'replace' attribute in layers. However if a layer name contains '(replace)' (parentheses included) it will be forced to be in replace mode. When you save the animation there is also a setting telling what to do with layers that have no explicit replace/combine setting.
To interleave the layers, you can have a look at my interleave-layers script. Make surre to use Merge=No.
