I am not sure what you mean by 'conflict'. I turn off all image enhancements on my TV (sharpening, denoising, frame interpolation, etc.), but I would without madVR as well.

Most of madVR's improvement is simply due to doing the required math with as high quality as possible, e.g. scaling, color space conversions, dithering, etc.

The only true conflict I can think of is smooth motion, which will interact badly with frame interpolation. You really do not want to use the TV's frame interpolation or those modes that try to pull 24 fps from the 60 Hz signal with smooth motion, it breaks those algorithms. Things like sharpening twice also looks bad but that is more due to over-sharpening. I am still not sure I would call that conflicting with each other but they can interact badly. I consider madVR's filters like sharpening, denoising, artifact removal, etc. as only useful for specific sources, not something to run all time.
