Apple TV not showing shared home library

I can put movies and TV shows on my MacPro 2019, and I can stream them on my iPad on the same network - section appears showing “EDIT’s Library” where I can see everything I have added to the AppleTV+ app on my Mac). But the AppleTV does not show any of my Home Sharing. It shows Recent Purchases, Movies, TV Shows, Family Sharing (just like my iPad) but. no “Edit’s Library”. A

Yes Home Sharing is turned on everywhere. Yes everything is the same account. I’d gone through all the community posts and Google searches. I’ve compared the settings on the iPad and AppleTV. It should work but it does not.

Home Sharing work a bit differently on the Apple TV box, in that it doesn’t use the TV app there, but the Computers app instead. Use Home Sharing to share media from a computer to other devices - Apple Support.

(Home Sharing is not supported for the Apple TV app on third party devices.)
