Latin Mass Video with Subtitles

  • I've been searching in vain for a video of Holy Mass that shows subtitles (at least in English, preferably in both English and Latin). I'm looking for one that shows all of the prayers, including those of the Canon, not just the server's responses. Our nearest True Mass is 200 miles away, so I want to use such a video on Sundays and Holy Days to teach our younger children how to follow the actions at the altar without having to refer to a hand missal. It would be much easier for them to follow it on-screen. Any ideas?
    "This principle is most certain: The non-Christian cannot in any way be Pope. The reason for this is that he cannot be head of what he is not a member. Now, he who is not a Christian is not a member of the Church, and a manifest heretic is not a Christian, as is clearly taught by St. Cyprian, St. Athanasius, St. Augustine, St. Jerome, and others. Therefore, the manifest heretic cannot be Pope." -- St. Robert Bellarmine

  • I don't think what you are looking for exists on the internet.

    This is about as close as you will come (but unfortunately, it is an FSSP recording):



    On the other hand, for entertainment purposes, here is a recreation of a 15th century Mass (real priest, real Mass) which is interesting:

  • As the viewer notices several rubrical variations in the 15th century Mass, recall that this would have been according to rubrics prior to Quo Primum.

    The Mass itself appears to be some kind a Missa Cantata (sung, but not solemn), possibly a monastic usage?

    It would have been nice if the post included some contextual information, such as whether any particular local (e.g., Gallican) or monastic usages were incorporated into these rubrics.

    Saying Mass behind the rood screen is also unusual in traditional venues today, but I wish it were more common!  A very definite distinction between priest/ministers and the laity!

    Note also that the choir/cantor is inside the sanctuary, as this was a LITURGICAL office: No notion of "active participation" with the faithful all getting into the act, Novus Ordo style: These faithful are silent.

    Removing the chasuble during the Credo in preparation for preaching was also one I have not seen before.

    If anyone can add any additional contextual information, please PM me; I don't want to derail the thread.

  • A Mass offered by Fr Gommar DePauw (VHS or Betamax tape uploaded to Youtube) is a model of clear pronunciation, very easily to follow with a missal, but no subtitles, ala

    I have this Mass on my hard drive and use it along with a Missal to fill in the correct readings for Sundays and Holy Days when I cannot go to actual Mass, since I don't have one to go to.  I usually follow daily Mass this way during Lent.  
    The only difficulty I could see is if one is not proficient enough in Latin to use a Missal instead of captioning.  
    Are there any CI techies out there who could help the OP by adding text, maybe on a CD or flash drive?  Sorry, but I'm of no use with computers.
