It may be that using scanline access is quite wrong for your subsampled files. It is not possible to support vertical sampling in a scanline. The data is stored using strips (which support multiple scanlines and can support vertical sampling) so it seems that TIFFStripSize() should be used rather than TIFFScanlineSize() and the strip should be read as a whole.
