Not sure where to post this, but here it goes.
We recently had a problem with our Beovision 7-55. At first, when the TV was turned on the picture would appear, but it would be washed out in green. After about 5 minutes the picture would return to normal. It would also happen every so often after the TV was on for a period of time. This happened on all channels so it just wasn’t the broadcasting signal, we have satellite TV. We also switched HDMI cables, disconnected the dish and ran the Apple TV alone to see if we could pinpoint the problem.
But it still was occurring all the time, so we called service and they came out – and the problem did not present itself, but we had taken pictures of the screen and showed the tech what was happening. They loaded up the TV so it could be bench tested. They called a few days later and said there was an issue, but they needed to send it to the B&O repair facility. B&O performed a bench tested and couldn’t find a problem, but they did replace a PIM module and updated the software – we are awaiting the return of the TV. B&O noted that a burst of color is normal at start up. We have yet to see that burst of color in the time we’ve owned it, interesting! So, we will see what happens going forward.
Has anyone else experienced this green screen on their TV?

Glad to see that the TV is being fixed...
I have a 7-55 Mk1 to date about 3000 hrs screen time after a bit more than 3 yrs. The color burst issue has never manifested itself at start up. Hope yours is doing fine from now on.
Best regards

Nah, this is true for perhaps a millisecund. Any showing of faulty Color is a fault on a electronics board or bad program. Put simply what you were told was just gobblegook.I wouldn't be surprised if there was a factory default of motherboards that is trying to being covered up.
Update to the green screen issue. TV was returned about 4 weeks ago and everything was working great, no issues. Now the problem has manifested itself again. So, the dealer took the TV in for repair again, how disappointing. Hopefully, they can figure out the problem. I am starting to believe you Gjutare about the main board being bad. They must have a bunch still in the repair supply pipeline. So this may not be the last time this thing happens.
