connecting mac to TV problems

I purchased a mini Dvi to VGA adaptor and VGA cable which enables me to plug my macbook into my samsung 32" HDTV. except i have no picture on my tv.

When i scroll through my connected sources on the Tv (eg AV1, AV2, PC) it gives a quick flash of my computer screen then dissapears!

When plugged in my mac recognises my tv and sets the resolution, although i have tried selecting different resolutions and i have set the screen through system preferences/display/arrangement, i have tried mirroring the display as well as the moving of the toolbar to screen #2. Nothing makes a difference i still have a black TV screen.

I have checked the VGA cable with a PC and it worked no problem and the DVi to VGA connector is brand new!
