Apple TV model A1469 Catalina Home Share

I installed Catalina last night on my iMac, and now my older Apple TV will not stream content from my library. I have turned on home sharing, the library does appear on the Apple TV when I select the computers icon. But the library never loads once I select it. It just shows the spinning wheel until the Apple TV goes to sleep. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Home Sharing between MacBook Pro and Apple TV not working How do I get Home Sharing to work? After reading many help articles and following the instructions to the letter, I still get the "no libraries available" message on my Apple TV. Both machines are updated, I power-cycled both devices and the router, both machines are on the same wi-fi network and signed-in with the same Apple ID, no VPN is running on the PowerMac, Media Sharing and Home Sharing are toggled on in the PowerMac, both the Apple TV app and the Music app are open and signed in with the same Apple ID. Also tried pairing the MacBook to the Apple TV, but it won't pair. What am I missing?

Disregard, I restarted my old Apple TV and everything started working.
