You’ll need a Mini-DVI to DVI cable/adapter. Then a DVI to HDMI adapter. You will also need a HDMI cable(whatever length you’ll need)!

You attach the Mini-DVI end of the Mini-DVI to DVI adapter to your Macbook. Then attach the DVI end of the DVI to HDMI adapter to the DVI end of the Mini-DVI to DVI adapter. Lastly, plug the HDMI cable into the HDMI end of the DVI to HDMI adapter and plug HDMI cable into your TV!

Also…be sure that the resolution output of the Macbook matches exactly the native resolution of the TV! And make sure the Macbook’s video card drivers are up-to-date!
i would think a HDMI cable
A link to the specs for your MacBook would be more helpful than the TV specs. There are several different Macbook models with different types of outputs so I can’t tell you what type of cable you need without knowing your configuration. You may need an adapter cable. Take a look at your computer’s manual and it should tell you.
