thanks for the help everyone! im still having trouble! i have a vga going out to my pc and a dvi going out into a hdmi. i used a monstor dvi to hdmi converter to use the monster dvi cable. i can switch between vga and dvi with a button on the lcd monitor. the vga comes up fine. when i turn on the dvd player and switch to dvi mode it comes up fine as well with he samsung “on” screen. BUT when i put a dvd in the samsung hd850 the scepter 19 inch x9w the screen goes lite blue then black then lite blue then black. when i take the dvd out te samsung menu comes up perfect. i tried changing the dvd players specs fom 480 to 720 to 768. the lcds to res is only 1400×900. i changed from the dvd players rgb-normal to rgb-expand and from dvi A to dvi B. this is all in samsungs menu. I am pulling my hair out. the sceptre lcd displays the dvd player when it turns on but not the movie when i load it in the player!!!! What am i doing wrong? i feel like i ate a bowl of clown this morning guys! thanks!

Here is the second video to demonstrate my application. Here I used my LCD-TV as display, which works fine, because the surface of the tv consists of glass or PLEXI-glass, so it reflects the light of my IR-pen. You have just to calibrate your webcam and your whiteboard is ready for use. The tracking quality of the webcam depends on the quality of the webcam. Mine 10 euro webcam is ok for surfing in the internet and using your desktop, but I thing it is not good enough to draw in paint.
