Hebrew Cantillations not working

Hebrew Cantillations either provides a blank screen or says "Sorry, this tool doesn't yet support poetic marks.  Additional information on Hebrew cantillation marks can be found at www.mechon-mamre.org".

    Hi, Triskal. Sorry about the troubles you're having with the Cantillations tool.

    We're preparing an update to this tool that will be shipping out very soon (weeks not months) that may take care of these issues. There are two cantillation systems, one for the 21 "prose" books and another for the 3 "poetic" books (Psalms, Job, Proverbs). The first version of the Cantillations tool did not support the alternate system for the 3 books. The forthcoming update will. I don't know why you would ever receive a blank screen; perhaps your installation does not have the required Lexham Hebrew Bible (LHB) resource?

    Thanks!  I do have the LHB, and will anticipate the update when shipped.

    I've been using the cantillation system with my Lexham Hebrew Bible, but it doesn't seem to be working now. I've tried it on a number of my devices and all of them just show the reference (Psalm 53:1, 2, 3...).
