It's not possible to AirPlay videos taken with the iPhone 4 video camera - those clock in around 10 megabits per second, whereas the AppleTV wants to see something below 5 megabits.

You'd need to offload the video, crunch it down in Quicktime or whatever, and AirPlay that.

The technical limitation is that the iPhone doesn't have the cojones, nor the power budget, to do full h.264 encoding on the fly while recording videos, so it has to use a less compressed format.
