Liturgy of the Hours/Breviary for Verbum??

Regarding Scripture translations, I hope the resource links to our favourite bible, just like the daily readings.
I’d be very surprised if that happens. As I understand it, it’s like the Lectionary. The reading is what’s been approved for liturgical use.
Again, not an expert here. I could be wrong.

David, you are correct.

I am in the process of working out the licensing for both the current and future LOTH editions. It is worthwhile for Verbum to have both the current and future editions.
The LOTH isn't as simple as "licensing a book." The four-volume LOTH is a patchwork of several different licensing agreements with different rights holders. We've managed to work out licensing for some, but not all--and the outstanding agreements are in progress right now.
Once the licensing is secured will begin development work.
Stay tuned....
Any advance on this, Craig?
Thanks.

I am interested in this as well... and I highly suspect that it would be a hit!

It's not shipping immediately at launch as we put the finishing touches on it, but I'm excited to announce that the English edition of the Liturgy of the Hours is available for American customers in Verbum 9 Gold and above.

Clarification - so if we already have Verbum Gold, we don't need to pre-order the Liturgy of the Hours, it will automatically be added to our library?

The USCCB is putting the finishing touches on the 2nd edition. Is Verbum already planning on releasing the 2nd edition when it is done?

If you own Verbum 9 Gold (or higher), then it will automatically be added to your library.
Note again that Liturgy of the Hours is only available for customers in America. The Latin Edition, when it's produced, will be available worldwide.

Just bought Platinum and it doesn't seem to have downloaded...at least I can't find it in my library.

There were some problems with the resource as tested in beta so they may be delaying it by a few days. I've not heard anything about how long they expected the fix to take.

D'oh! Missed that. My bad. Thanks....and thanks for the work on V9. I'm impressed with what little I've seen so far.

I know the finishing touches are still being worked on - but do you know if there will be a dashboard/home screen card available for it like the lectionary card?

I’d like that. Put it next to my other initial devotions before I start studying for the morning

I've seen no indication that a ordo/lectionary is being built for it

While I am excited for this resource, that is disappointing if the Ordo isn't built for it to work similar to the Lectionary - especially since that is integral to how it is normally used. Hopefully someone from FL can clarify/shed light on this?

Seconded. It really needs to be this

Nor I. But if they do decide to make one, it would really be an ordo, not a lectionary, that they should make.

Exactly what is contained in Liturgy of the Hours.

I was thinking "lectionary" in the sense of reusing existing functionality rather than waiting in line for new programming.

Has anyone heard anything more about whether they'll create something like a dashboard/home screen card for it? I can pray it with the 4 volume physical set, but that wasn't an easy thing to get the knack of. I started with the brothers on EWTN via shortwave in the mornings like 25 years ago. I got lost so many times at first and couldn't keep up that the initial volume I was using about took flight across my living room any number of times. I now buy a little paperback page guide every year just to help ensure I'm in the right spot on any given day. They really need to create a home screen digital version of that - not recreate that guide but essentially have it in software so you can focus on the prayer and not moving about the volume - because if you're doing it with a physical volume you are definitely moving about the volume. There are iOS versions of the breviary now that remove all that tediousness of the physical volumes and just let you focus on the prayer and not the mechanics. If Verbum is going to publish the volumes then they need to do the same thing and truly leverage their platform with these.

I agree there. It won’t be a useful resource without it... probably less convenient than the four physical volumes

AMEN! I couldn't agree more. The 4 physical volumes with their assorted colored ribbons would be WAY more convenient than the Verbum version if they don't create something for the home page that essentially walks you through a given day's various hours. Just dumping the 4 volumes into Verbum would be LESS useful than the 4 physical volumes in terms of praying the hours. And that's why I really have wanted it in Verbum for years now in the first place - to pray it handily without having to carry that thick volume around. Verbum isn't really the Catholic tool they want it to be without this.
