    I know Airplay doesn't work on my 2008 Macbook, but I think because I'm only running Snow Leopard (OSX 10.6).

    I would imagine anything running 10.7 onwards should be good

    Unfortunately the o/s is not the issue. Older macs lack the necessary graphics hardware. Pity.

    Not on your apple tv anyhow, sky have TVout & Airplay blocked with SkyGo (AFAIK)
    I use a website (paid, €6 a month) that streams in safari all the games from sky & bt & that website is setup for airplaying to ATV.

    VLC runs fine over Airplay fom a mac. Sound is sent to TV speakers and video is fullscreen

    Same with VLC on iPad

    tried this again instead of itunes. the sound came out of my mac, not the tv. vlc and osx is up to date.
