I tried AirParrot a few weeks back. I had issues with the audio and couldn't seem to come up with the right fix.

Just download the audio driver listed on the AirParrot page. Swear to god it works just great. I was surprised I hadn't heard about it before to be honest.

I have m4v files with subtitles which i had merged mp4 files with srt files using Handbrake. I should be able to view the video files on my HD LCD TV using Apple TV just like the iTune movies and shows? I am purchasing the Apple TV this week but being partially deaf need subtitles.
Update...I had just purchased my Apple TV 3rd gen. and loving it. Subtitles work great but the one drawback is the annoying translucent gray backdrop behind the white subtitles. What is with that? Seems to be no way to rid of that backdrop so far.

XBMC is just too good on the ATV.. just wish my ATV2 had more ram to run the more fancy skins out there
