Your V+ box seems to have 'hung'. Try switching off at the mains and power on again after say 20-30 seconds. You should get your V+ back again, through your scart.
Using your remote you need to set up your V+ box to enable the HDMI output. From memory you should press home and then help and the V+ box will give you a video tutorial on how to change your display settings. After you are confident of what needs to be done, you can alter the settings.
After you have done this, turn your TV to the HDMI input and you should be all set up.
I did this about 2 weeks ago and all is going well.
