How do I view Apple TV app's "Home Videos" on my 4th Generation Apple TV?

I have .mp4 movie files uploaded in the "Home Video" section of Apple TV on my MacBook. When I go to my 4th Generation Apple TV's "Apple TV" app, I don't see an option to view Home Videos. How do I sync them?

MacBook Pro Retina

Ok, here is what I do when I have that issue. First verify the MacBook and the Apple TV are on the same network. Then on the MacBook, turn off Home Sharing - Quit iTunes - Re-start iTunes - Turn on Home Sharing. On the Apple TV - Restart Apple TV - verify Home Sharing is on - Check the network for both the Apple TV and the Mac Book are still on the same network and then re-test.
