You should be using AirPlay for playing a movie. Once you have it setup on the iPad, make sure they TV supports AirPlay, and down in the lower right corner of the movie screen, you should see an icon that looks like a rectangular screen with an arrow head at the bottom. That allows you to select AirPlay devices. Use AirPlay to stream video or mirror your device’s screen - Apple Support

I use to have the iPad paired to the tv and I labeled family room. I would switch from the iPad to viewing the movie in the family room but it’s been erased. How to I remedy this?
