apple tv home sharing not available on the app on my samsung tv

Hi,

Why is the home sharing option, which allows my to view home videos I've imported into the apple tv app on my iMac, not available on the apple tv app on my Samsung tv.

Thanks in advance for your help/

The Apple TV app on your smart TV allow you to access:

iTunes Store movies and TV shows (buy or rent);
Apple TV+ channel featuring Apple Originals [1] [2], by subscription;
other premium Apple TV app Channels, each by subscription.

Home Sharing is not part of that. Home Sharing requires the Apple TV box.

The Apple TV box has much more functionality than the Apple TV app.
