I'd like to thank our developers for replying to our discussion!

I'd be interested if there are any other Mencoder users that record on
composite channel of an old hardware like mine
(
see my previous mail in this thread:
Message-ID: <20170131184959.GB16989 at g0n.xdwgrp>
or look it up at:
https://lists.mplayerhq.hu/pipermail/mencoder-users/2017-January/013597.html
)

And *I'll certainly be back with a report* if it should happen that it
wouldn't work anymore (without pretending any right to support, of
course, I've used FOSS long enough to be thankful when support is there,
and accepting humbly when it is lacking).

I'll be back because I usually record for hours daily on composite
channel of my old hardware with Mencoder, and I would feel it to be
sorely missing if the functionality were to be extinguished.

And if anybody would like to try and use the method that I apply, and
can't get it done on their own, they can write to the list, *be patient
waiting for the reply*, and I might be of help to them.

Regards!
