Jan 22, 2013 9:34 PM in response to mforzeseby kakososato,Yeah it's annoying, any audio or video on iOS is available for AirPlay by default, but not on OS X.
If you have a new computer, you may be able to mirror your entire Mac's display via AirPlay mirroring. Go to System Preferences, Displays, and see if AirPlay Mirroring is an option at the bottom of the window.
The best way for the time being is to play this content from an iOS device, or find it through the Apple TV apps (if it's YouTube or Vimeo).
Edit: You can AirPlay all your system audio by holding down Alt, pressing the volume icon in your menubar, and selecting Apple TV. This is for Mountain Lion only, and just sends all audio that would normally come from your speakers.
