Mini Displayport To Hdmi For Macbook Pro

I just purchased a Moshi Mini Displayport to HDMI adapter to use with my 2008 Macbook Pro to watch movies on my TV but it's not working. When I plug in the adapter/hdmi cable to my computer, the screen flashes for a second and my windows fade out for just a second, then they fade back in. This makes it seem like the computer is detecting the cable and it should be working fine but when I flip on the TV and switch to the right input, the TV tells me 'No Signal'.
I assumed that these cables are plug and play so could there be another issue here? Is it possible my TV is not compatible? Are there settings that I need to change? Please help!
Also the HDMI cable is not faulty. I tested it with a Windows laptop that has a HDMI port in the laptop itself and the TV picks up the signal just fine.
