How to reboot Samsung V+

savvychels · 15-02-2011, 02:51

One of the things I liked about the SA boxes was the 'reset' button on the front for when you needed to do a quick reboot of the box. We recently had to replace an SA box that died, and we got a Samsung. I like it, but just needed to reboot it and couldn't find an equivalent button, so had to shut it off and on at the plug.

Is there a button or a series of buttons (like on the old V boxes) to push to reset from the box or does it need to be done from the plug?

Thanks

Oops - never mind. I found it on the forums by searching google (go figure). Seems press and hold the standby button till it says 'stop'. Off to try it.

There is actually an on/off power switch on the back, obviously dont touch this whilst the system is accessing the hard drive.

The on/off switch appeared on the later models, it's not available on mine. You can reboot by holding in the standby button on the box for 5 seconds or until '5toP' appears or use the 'Fix-it' assistant in Home>Help & Info.
