Sample 2x softens things a little in 4x mode, so everything should look less pixelated and closer to what you’d get on a CRT. While it’s a pretty noticeable difference on my screen, I wasn’t able to capture it on camera. I leave it on for almost everything, I think it really helps 480i signal.
As for scanlines, the main reason to use them with a 480i output is to help hide the de-interlacing flicker when “Sl. alternating” is on. Even at their lowest strength, they’ll help, especially if you also turn up the Hybrid scanline strength.
The main purpose for the “always on” scanlines has more to do with how 240p images are displayed. I’d recommend you watch these videos when you get a chance, he goes into how the different video modes work. They can get a bit technical, but cover things on the whole more clearly than other things that I’ve seen.

What is 525-Line Analog Video?
I wish I could give you an answer as to why you aren’t seeing any difference between the different output modes – 2x and 4x are quite different looking on my display. Would you be able to post any screenshots so we can see what you’re ending up with?
