Thanks for your reply Pheisholt, same it can't be done within OCD maybe a hint for V6 to have a <!--[AlbumNext]--> tag or something so we can manual shift the pointers rather than having to wait until we hit the <!--[/Album]--> tag.

Out of interest just to see how you did it, you still have a copy if the CMI_Play template with the change you added in?
might learn something from it anyway
