Home Videos Cloud Storage

Hi

I have created various videos of our holidays in iMovie, exported as a file and saved them in the Apple TV app under "Home Videos".

I'm looking for the best way these would be accessible on all devices such as Apple TV and iPhone. IE I'd like my family to be able to turn on the Apple TV and choose which video they'd like.

I've tried moving the entire Apple TV library to the cloud but that didn't work.

I'd like to avoid using something like YouTube / Vimeo if possible.

Thanks

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 12.3

You can turn on optimize storage and it will use far less, but I see your point


One possible option would be to run a media server on a computer that allows you to stream to your other devices


Like for example plex (plex.tv) I don't know how well it handles sorting etc of home movies, but it should work


It has apps for apple tv and iphones, and probably android too
