Hold play and stop at the same time whilst booting the box, hold them for about 5 seconds. This should allow you to select the output (you should see "Output" on the front display), select SCART (or whatever output you want) and press OK. This method works with the SA8300 but i'm not sure if it works with the Samsung V+ boxes.

Hi how are you connecting to tv if with a scart lead it should still show picture on tv.

Ok give this a try Hold in the Stop and Play/Pause buttons on the front panel, and press Reset. Keep Stop and Play/Pause held in until the display says 'boot'.
After a few seconds the display should say 'outpt'. Press the Fast Forward button several times until the display says 'Sd', then press OK. Wait for the V+ to reboot then you should be back in SCART mode.

plug your scart into the vcr socket and you should see picture to allow you to change settings
