I recently just got an Horizon 48 with a set of S8 speakers. The TV is going back anyway to be replaced due to the installer being a little clumsy and marking the screen, but thats a different story.

Earlier on when I came to turn on the TV a  "Bang & Olufsen" logo appears for a couple seconds before going blank, and then curtains open.

Before today the screen would stay blank then the curtains would open. No B&O logo appearing.

 

Has anyone ever suffered this? and if so do they know how to fix it? I know it seems like a small issue but I liked having a blank screen then whatever was on the TV to be slowly unveiled

To my knowledge a B&O logo always appears first when turning on the TV, after the booting up process the curtains gently slide open. My Horizon has never booted up with the logo not showing.

BV Harmony 65 / Eclipse 55 / BL 50 / 19 / 18 / BS 2 all brass

BV Horizon 48 / V1 40 / BL 17 / Beoplay S3 all black

V1 / BL 3 / BS Essence MKII / Beoplay A3 all white

BS Moment / BS 3000 / BS 3200 / BL 400 all silver

Headphones / bluetooth speakers / BLC NL-ML / BLGateway

I know…B&O virus has grown on me !

I think that you will not get the B&O logo, if is starts from standby. Only if it has restarted or had power off.

That's nothing new, the same happens on BV14 and Avant NG randomly due to the android platform, so no surprise I'm afraid. If it was the first time, it isn't the last time, believe me.

One day, when you wake up on the morning, tv may be already on, waiting for you 😀

Sounds like we have a bit of a bug here with Android. I hope this is rectified in an update. Mine seems to be doing it constantly without fail now after it had a little reset moment to itself. There must be a way to cure this.

 

Is there anyway to perform a soft reset on the TV without it loosing configurations and what not? I can't seem to find anything and I find it a bit silly that there is no reset anywhere. Anything that runs software should have it!

I think the previous poster is correct - the logo appears after the TV has either been powered off or been off for a while. Otherwise when switching it on from standby it doesn't appear.

Was the same with my BV14

On my BV 11, if It's set to "quick start" I get no logo.

With power saving mode on, you get the logo but it's longer to start.

Look at your power saving settings.

The TV has been behaving pretty as of today. No B&O logo. I cannot seem to find power saving mode? Does the BV11 run the android platform? 

 

Maybe it iswitches to power saving mode if it's been unplugged at the wall but changed back after a few hours of sitting on standby?

BV 11 is based on B&O platform, that's why is ok.

To get to the power saving settings (quick start timers) press Home, go to Settings, then scroll down to the bottom line and press Red then press select/ok. Then you'll see important settings.

TV seems to be acting normal. Until, without fail until I turn the TV on in the early hours. After 1-2 AM the tv starts showing the B&O logo. Maybe it's been designed in to remind your tired mind of how fortunate you are to have such a nice TV ;)

 

joking aside, it's really bizarre how it does this after midnight. I have no explanation for why it does this and I'd be interested dri know if you guys have noticed this pattern.
