TCL 50S535 will force as 16:9-ish aspect ratio across all native 4:3 content with no option of adjusting the screen.
2x, 3x, 4x worked with 480i content. Passthru mode results in a squished, horizonal image that is unplayable.
Wanted to follow up on this. I just got the same model, the 65in – TCL 65S535. Great price for me at under $500, my first dip into 4K so I didn’t need anything crazy top of the line.
I haven’t had too much time to play around with how it plays with the OSSC, but I haven’t had any issues yet. Not sure if Brian is still around to reply, but if I’m understanding correctly, it’s only when passthrough is used that issues arrive?
If it’s native 4:3 that causes problems, does anyone know something that would even benefit by using passthrough? I guess in general if someone doesn’t like the OSSC’s bob deinterlacing they would use passthrough, but besides that I can’t think of anything. Anything 4:3 that I have would be either going through the OSSC or a DVDO VP50. The only analog inputs are coax and composite, so not much reason to use those.
I’ve only used 240p via SNES and 480i via PS2 so far. 240p was easily able to go up to 5x. I can try and take some pictures soon. Sorry for the rambling!
