The color artifacts are also seen on the remote computer.
Customer has tried the Dev release (9901.12.0	62.0.3202.18) with the same result.
About USB extender:
"We do use a USB extender but not for the camera, the camera is directly
attached to the chromebox."

I asked that customer tries this with another camera to see if it follows the box or camera.
Customer confirmed that the issue is related to the camera. They replaced it to some other model and it is working fine. They are currently using another webcam as workaround. 
It is not clear however if it is just one flawed camera or this model is not completely supported. I'll advise them to try another C920 with the chromebox to see if it is a common issue

More input from the customer:

Customer confirms that issue still exists even after trying another camera of the same model customer insists that
- All cameras were working fine until after a ChromeOS update 
- Even after reverting the OS upgrade; issue persisted, 
- Customer thought that this is not a camera firmware issue, as if that was the case it would have never worked. 
- He thinks it could be USB firmware issue on the Chromeboxes themselves 

choonc@, katierh@, can you please take a look?

#9 - ykrychala - can you have the customer send us a recorded stream with the color issue? can they also file feedback from the device and send us an affected meeting ID?
I'll ask customer to provide that

Ping, is this still happening?
#12 - My customer became unresponsive when I was suggesting to try to have a recorded stream with the color issue and to file a feedback from the device with the affected meeting ID. Case was closed.
