      Hello, I open this topic for people to easily report compatibility or issues when connecting the OSSC directly to a consumer flat screen television (i.e. not monitors, PVMs or via scalers etc). Hopefully this will increase the speed at which info is gathered on TV brands/models which are suitable, without Marqs & Bucko constantly having to monitor things to update the official compatibility google sheet .

      WHAT TO REPORT:
      Please include at minimum
      *complete TV model info
      *whether linetriple (Lx3) works
      *if tested, whether 60Hz SNES/SFC/NES-RGB works, and whether it has de-jitter mod or not (see further below)
      *FW version used

      Additional info is also encouraged (like tested consoles, PAL/NTSC, additional modes, settings tweaks & TV input lag), but in this post I will only summarize the above essentials. Reporting monitors, projectors and other setups is of course welcome, but again, I will not summarize those in this post (at least not at this point).

      Thanks to all contributors!

      VARIOUS INFO
      Linedouble is expected to work on all TVs, and quite few have reported SNES/NES-RGB problems. Line triple mode has had higher compatibility than expected, and compatibility can be increased further by external means. **See note at bottom

      Lx4 and Lx5 modes are available since Feb 2017 Firmware 0.76.
      FW 0.77 fixed incompatibilities with newer Samsung 4k sets.

      n/r – not reported or not tested

      Note regarding SNES & NES-RGB
      Due to sync jitter caused by a short scanline output by these consoles every other frame in NTSC mode (60Hz), SNES (irrespective of internal hardware) & NTSC NES-RGB have a higher incompatibility rate. Note that this sync jitter does NOT occur in PAL (50Hz) mode. The jitter can be removed with the de-jitter mod developed by Marqs. This modboard can now be ordered from VGP shop, when in stock.
      For example, a couple of SNES-incompatible 4k Sonys (X/XD-series) have recently been reported. And several models from all brands can have problems with intermittent image dropouts in various line modes.

      Tweaks for Lx3/Lx4 and PAL modes
      Regarding the “tweaks” referenced to achieve Lx3/Lx4 for some models, and for PAL modes, see this Tips & Tweaks thread.

      TO DO: better sorting and way to distinguish models that are currently on market. I am open to suggestions on this point.

      LATEST UPDATE: July 10, 2020
      Note that unfortunately posts with reports from mid-August 2019 to early February 2020 were all lost when VGP migrated servers, and I had not done an update to this OP during that time. Sorry!

      See also the official compatibily chart for even more, including monitors.

      Provisional verdict:
      Samsung, LG, Vizio and TCL are safe bets overall for Lx3 (and above) compatibility. For Sonys, it seems the new 4k X/XD range work with Lx3 also, but not the older W series otherwise highly praised for gaming (do note some incompatibilities with SNES!). Panasonic generally do not seem to do Lx3.

      Possible ”best of” list: Premium range: LG C7/8/9/X OLED; Budget range: TCL S series

      **Note that line triple and SNES compatibility can also be alleviated by using scalers like Extron DSC 301 or DVDO products (low additional lag), but A/V receivers NoAffinity and even cheap no-name scalers with HDMI input such as this one have been reported to help (though the latter is not recommended for play due to excessive lag, only suitable for output to capture). Also report of soundbar with HDMI input that can take up to Lx5 signal: haloharry

          SNES PAL (SNSP-CPU-02)
          SNES PAL RGB cable from Retrogamingcables (maybe sync on Luma but I’m not sure. It was bought some years ago and it was not specified).
          It works OK with default configuration.
          Image is a bit dark and it shows some noise (diagonal bars).
          Image is lighter with Framemeister but it still shows noise.

          SNES Mini. Modded with SUperCIC and RGB
          RGB cable that came with the console (I don’t know how it is wired).
          It works with default configuration (50 or 60 Hz) but sync is temporarily lost in some points of the tested game (DKC). When losing sync, OSSC LED goes red for a moment, the image is lost and after a moment, LED goes green and image is back.
          To avoid losing sync, I have to set Analog sync LPF to 2.5 MHz.
          Image is bright and it shows some noise (less than in PAL console). In 60 Hz mode noise is a bit less noticeable.
          Noise is gone with Framemeister (SCART to mini-DIN with sync cleaner is used).

          Linetriple mode does not work in any of the SNES models. TV shows a “non compatible mode” warning.

          Noise is not related to OSSC since it is also shown if I connect the consoles to the RGB input of the TV.

                I’m getting a 2016 75″ P series TV next Wednesday where I’ll do testing on that. I choose the Vizio TVs due to excellent input delay and phenomenal picture. Here’s a video link of me playing Sega Saturn on the 50″ TV.

                    CONSOLE: Natively PAL Sega Saturn, switchlessly region and Hz modded; running games from SD card via Rhea board.

                    TV: Panasonic Viera, LCD TX-L37S20BA, non LED backlight, 1080 native resolution.

                    MODE: Line Double to 480p – works nicely. Game mode on this TV only allows 16:9 aspect ratio. There is ++ dot crawl with sharpness >0.
                    MODE: Line Triple to 720p – black screen.

                      That’s unfortunate, many Panasonic sets do support line triple and that fixes the aspect ratio thing. Thanks everyone for reporting your findings thus far!

                              x2 480p works almost perfectly for the consoles I’ve tested so far, all perfect but Famicom
                              x3 720p does not work with any source
                              x2 480p does not work for Dreamcast, 480p pass-through is perfect (only tested dreamcast for 480p)

                              Consoles tested:
                              Twin Famicom (Odd Horizontal sync issue or something, look at my NESRGB Twin Famicom thread – not sure if something is up with console)

                              Genesis
                              Dreamcast
                              SNES (early model with native RGB)
                              n64

                                x3 does not work
                                x2 480p does not work

                                Same consoles tested as above. SNES with native RGB works. Poor scaling to 720p, scanlines look terrible.

                                Not a TV, but my Emachines E211H LCD supports all modes, SNES x3 looks great!

                                The horizontal sync issue with my NESRGB has been present on all displays.
