For those of you that have an iOS device (i.e. iPad, iPod Touch, or iPad) that also use the HBO GO app have noticed that you can NOT stream HBO GO via AirPlay to your HDTv.
HBO displays a message on screen that sites the inability for HD output. Really what they are doing is restricting you from going house to house with the HBO channel at the ready. You paid for it so you should be able to use it.
No Roku or Apple Tv Jail Breaking required.

Here is what you will need to WIRELESSLY stream HBO GO to your AppleTv:
1) A JailBroken iOS Device (I recommend an iPad due to better resolution when blowing up to the size of a TV screen)
If you need help with JailBreaking go to my Blog on JailBreaking by CLICKING HERE.
2) DisplayOut (Download this package from Cydia it's $2.99 but worth every penny.
3) HBO GO (you probably already have it)
After you install the DisplayOut hack from Cydia you are ready to go. Just launch the HBO GO app and mirror from your device and DisplayOut takes care of the rest.
Not necessary to configure by if you want to adjust the settings of DisplayOut just go to the native iOS settings app. Now you can watch HBO GO on your Apple Tv.
