Synology NAS media playback

I'm considering purchasing an Apple TV 4k. I have a Synology nas with all my media and would like to know if you can mount it with the Apple TV.

I’m currently using Nvidia shield tv pro with my NAS mounted to access my media to play on Plex.

Is there a way I can access my NAS on Apple tv and play media via Plex

Apple TV HD and SMB1 I have my media (audio and video) stored on NAS device (QNAP) and the NAS did a firmware upgrade that changed the minimum smb version accepted from 1 to 2. This immediately broke Home Sharing from my Mac to the Apple TV HD. Luckily I recalled that this changed and others were complaining to QNAP that other applications were breaking as well because of the change. I found a parameter on the QNAP server that reset the minimum smb version back to 1 and all is well now (mostly, Home Sharing is still a little flaky but getting better). So my question is, why did SMB 2 break Home Sharing to the Apple TV HD box?

ATV Gen 1 I can understand Apple no longer supporting the Apple TV Gen 1, but if they’re not going to support such a product they need to at least replace it with something. And no, the current streaming Apple TVs are worthless for off grid use like in a camper or a sailboat. I have an Apple TV Gen 1 that I’ve upgraded with a large solid state drive and it works perfectly. The problem is getting media onto it. I’m in the process of installing the old Sierra OS in Parallels in hopes I’ll finally be able to still connect to my library and sync to my old Apple TV so I can take it with me this summer on my sailboat. All of this is very annoying since the hardware is more than sufficient to handle music, photos and movies.
