How do I play music while watching slides (photos) with Home Sharing? iMac27 and Apple 4K.

I use to be able to associate a folder of "movie music" (various instrumentals) to play along with photos from my iMac through my Apple TV box via Home Sharing. Now I have an Apple 4K box and when I set up which photos on my iMac to show on our TV, there is no longer an option to associate a music folder with the photos. How do I do that now?

Apple TV 4K, tvOS 14

You can start your own music playing from the Music or Computers app.


You can then play a slideshow from:

  • Photos > Shared > {Album} > Play Slideshow > Start Slideshow
  • Photos > Albums > {Album} > Play Slideshow > Start Slideshow
  • Computers > {Computer} > Photos > Albums > {Album} > Play Slideshow > Start Slideshow


Or you can start a slideshow playing and then use the Siri remote to start some music.
