First, which VPlayer are you speaking of? The Cydia-based, free one (at version 0.1.1), or, the AppStore-based non-Lite version costing $4.99? (The free AppStore-based Lite version doesn't support any kind of BG playback.)
The former (the Cydia-based one) does support BG playback to an ATV after enabling it in Video Player > Background Playback. Did you use it or the paid-for AppStore version? I havent tested the latter as yet. I've mailed the devs some questions on 13/January 8:48AM GMT for my review but they haven't answered.
Note that neither the Cydia nor the AppStore version support native wired TV out at all.
First, thanks for your reply, i appreciate.
i can assure you that background manager is not as the its name suggest. i review that tweak 10 days ago and it's for keeping apps running in the background for faster lunch to not get bothered by waiting for the app to load all the time. i wish if it did the same as Backgrounder for ios 5, but it doesn't.
It does. You just haven't enabled Forced mode in it. It, by default, does NOT use forced mode. You must explicitly enable it as has also been pointed out in the dedicated section of my Keynote article (

I'm talking about airplaying a video to apple tv while u can press the home button to exit from it and the airplay will be still working.
With the latest version, 0.9-16, (I've just tested), both GoodPlayer and nPlayer play back videos when minimized over both wireless AirPlay and a wired HDMI connection, with the HDMI adapter, assuming you use Forced mode with both. If you don't (that is, you leave them in the native background mode), both AirPlay and wired playback will immediately be paused (former) / terminated (latter) as soon as you background these apps.
Again, BM works just fine.
