How to connect ATV Music to a NAS

I have a library of music stored on my QNap NAS. I've connected this library to my Music app on my MacBook Air. I'd like to connect the same library to my Apple TV Music app. I can't see any way to do this. Can anyone help?

Apple TV 4K, tvOS 16

Add NAS drive folder to Apple Music on iPad 6th Gen Wi-Fi. I have a large collection of music stored on a NAS drive and I am trying to get Apple Music on my 6th Gen iPad Wi-Fi to use this as my music library. I have successfully connected my iPad to my Netgear ReadyNAS, and can see all the folders on my iPad. All I need now is a way that I can get the NAS drive folder with all my music (which is normally accessed via iTunes or Music), to be accessible from Apple Music on my iPad, so I can play music from it over my DENON receiver. Thank you.

Anyone else having problems finding the Home Sharing Library in Apple Music on a MacBook Pro? No problem with Home Sharing from my iMac to my iPad and my iPhone, but can't find it on my MacBook Pro (MacOS Ventura) Only having problems on my MacBook Pro, which in Music is only showing my original Music Library, not the recent additions through Home Sharing. I can't even see the "Library" listed in the sidebar of my Music menu.

Where is the "Show" pop-up menu at the bottom of the Music window? I am trying to use Home Sharing to share and import the Music library from one iMac to another iMac. They are both on the same network, in the same house, with the same Apple ID. Apple says in the help topic document "Import media using Home Sharing in Music on Mac" to "Click the Show pop-up menu at the bottom of the Music window, then choose “Items not in my library.”" I cannot see "Show" pop-up menu in Music at all. Where is it located? I have access to the Music library but can't import the songs, only listen to them. Any help is appreciated, thanks.
