EDIT: okay, nevermind. the camera was in the right way.
we reloaded the default values, and it still did not track.

may the problem be that we were using last year's camera?

ONE MORE EDIT: somehow we got it to work. a little bit of beer (lol) and saturation levels is all we really needed.
the flicker in the backgrond was confusing the camera.
