I have a series of lectures on DVD. Can I record the output directly from audio out on the player to the 882's mic port?

Yes. I do this at church, recording the sermon directly from the mixer's phone port to the recorder. When I get home I connect my analog to digital converter to the recorders "ear" port and the converter to my computer to make CD's for those who are in nursing homes and can't get to church.

Audio out on any system will work. You may need a spliter. One into two. Pretty cool.

I have the speaker hooked up to my tv so when I use my dvd player the sound goes through the speaker. I don't know if you can hook the speaker directly to a dvd.

Sorry but no. Like most similar recorders, plugging onto one of the connectors from an external source disables the built-in mics. To do what you are asking requires an external mixer.

I'm not sure of this answer. The booklet says that an external speaker can be attached. However it shows a picture of an amplifier with speakers being attached. I have not tried anything like this. My problem with the unit is that on regular DVDs the sound is fine but on DVDs that I have made the sound is so low that you really cannot listen. Hope this helps

Yes, there is a port for audio out. I'm using a pair of jvc speakers with internal amp. I'm also using a hdmi cord between a dvd player and projector.

I believe it only has a 1/8" audio out, you would need to use a 1/8th to rca cable or adapter. You can use the audio out from your cable/sat box or dvd player

Don't think that's possible. Pretty sure you need the USB port - plugged directly into my DVD player's USB port.

Put the adapter on the record before you put it on the player. A simply google or YouTube search will clear up any questions.

I don't really know. I have only recorded onto a CD and I don't believe you can record any other way. However, there is a way to connect to your computer, so there may be some options I am not aware of.

Sorry, don't really know. I have a JVC recorder to change tapes to dvd and I used two of them and does not work.

Output is simple a/v, so assuming you have a setup that records straight from this I couldn't see why not.

YES!! I've done it with my Hi-8 video tapes. It was very simple, attaching the output from the video camera to the input on the DVD recorder. First time I tried, I forgot to select the setting for the source, and ended up with a little TV recording, but once I corrected my problem, it went very smoothly.

I've never done that, but I'll give you a qualified "I think so." This is based on the fact that when I go to the sound properties, I see there is a "SPDIF In" recording device, as well as a SPDIF In port on the back of the unit. I'd defer to someone else who's done that though since I don't know for certain.

I'm not totally sure, but I'm guessing the only way it could be done is if you plug the recorder into laptop or desktop via the built-in USB connection and try that. The quick start guide that came with the recorder tells you how to access the help guide that should answer that question. Or you can go to http://rd1.sony.net/help/icd/u53/uc/

Does your HDTV have an HDMI out port or at least component cables to hook up to the input of the DVD recorder? I doubt it does so it is highly unlikely that you could record from the TV. In order to be able to record anything you need an input source that has its own tuner, or cancels the need for a tuner, as this recorder does not have one built in, but without some type of input source there will be nothing for the recorder to record

Sure, not a problem. Just run cables from the video, left and right audio outputs on the back of your VCR to their respective inputs on the DVD Recorder.
