In theory XBMC should be able to mirror it's output to the Apple TV 3 (or the native AirPlay server on the ATV2) since the APIs used for the video out cable also work with mirroring (or something like that). However, it has not been tested yet.
I have one theory that someone might try:
1. Make sure you are using a nightly build of XBMC
2. Before opening XBMC, double tap the home button to bring up the App Switcher, slide over to expose the volume control and AirPlay icon.
3. Select the Apple TV 2/3, which should start generic mirroring
4. Now open XBMC, then go to Settings/System/Video output (wiki) and try selecting "Full screen #2" under "Display Mode"
Works just fine, but is the Resolution really the same as on iPad? If so this is a nice workaround for atv3 owners!
