According to Apple, you save a movie, trailer, or clip on your Mac and then import it
into your Apple TV library. Then you can watch your movie in the
Apple TV app on your Mac. Here are the steps
Your video appears in the Home Videos section in the Apple TV app
Library. In the Apple TV app, you can add the movie to your other
devices such as Apple TV, iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch.

I am not that familiar with the workings of Apple TV. You might try posing your question on the Apple TV forum, as you probably could get more information there from experienced users. Here's the link:

Thanks for this Rich.
i can now see my videos through the Apple TV app on the Mac after importing them as you suggested and they play fine.
However I’m struggling to view them both on my iPhone (where the videos seem to be there but don’t play) and on my 3rd generation Apple TV where Accessing TV message keeps rotating when I select library.
Am I missing a step in order to get the videos transferred over to my other devices? Media sharing via Home Shating option is already enabled on my Mac.
I have now managed to get it working on my IPhone 8 ( only by keeping IMac on which is disappointing) but still no joy on my Apple TV 3rd generation box. Do I need to upgrade my Apple TV box to 4th gen and above to get this working?
