      The 480p 2x (960p) works?

      Actually not sure about that, since the consoles I tend to run through this are mostly 240p. My PS2 has worked well thus far, but I believe most of those games are outputting 480i if not mistaken. I can check this on a few games though I see what I get.

        Does anyone know if the TCL 40S325 or any line from the S325 work with all modes? Thanks for any info in advanced.

        I had a 4-series TCL but it got poor results with compatibility. SNES was unplayable. PS2 (playing a PS1 game) had occasional dropouts that may have been possible to eliminate with some settings tinkering, but no luck. N64 worked fine, if I recall correctly. However, 3x and 4x looked like trash on this TV. It made everything much darker and just added a bunch of extra noise everywhere. I was never able to make it look good.

        I assume the 3-series models aren’t much better, but I did have an older TCL from 2011 that managed to work pretty well in line triple mode.

        I now have a 6-series TCL, and it works beautifully with everything I’ve used on it (Genesis, SNES, N64, PS2, all capability of x3 and x4 just fine).

          On a TCL 40FS3750.

          Lx3: Works, but doesn’t really look good. The image is darkened and I get a bunch of vertical artifacts. Same thing with Lx4, but worse. Lx5 does not work at all (and neither does passthrough for 240p content).

          SNES: Does not work in Lx2 – I get frequent drop-outs that I haven’t been able to fix through messing with the settings. However, I do get a stable connection with Lx3 and Lx4, but the same problems as above persist with the poor image quality. I may post pictures.

          I also tested an older TCL LE24FHDD20.

          Lx3: Works, and looks great.

          SNES: Also works, but the image size can’t be adjusted on this TV so Lx2 ends up stretching the image. However, Lx3 works, gives the correct aspect ratio, and looks great. Wish I could say the same for the TV I actually use, I just pulled this one out out of curiosity.
