Playing my movies in TV app

I bought a new Mac mini with big Sur OS. It comes with the Apple TV app instead of iTunes. I have over 300 DVDs and Blu-Rays downloaded into iTunes. I have imported them into the new tv app but how can I watch them on my smart TVs? The library on the app only shows movie bought from apple.

Mac mini, macOS 11.1
