How to play iTunes movies on iMac on iPhone?

[Spendlove]

Hi All,

I have the new iPhone 6S+ and was able to play home movies from my iMac iTunes account on my iPhone the same as if it was an Apple TV. Previously I have been unable to do it.

I have been unable to replicate it since!

How do I do this?

Go to Settings > Video and make sure that under 'Home Sharing' you are signed into the same account as iTunes. Also make sure you are both connected to the same WiFi network. Then, under the Videos app, you should see a tab at the bottom called 'Shared'. Click that...

So weird. Both iMac and iPhone are on the same account and same wifi, home sharing is on (works fine on the Apple TV) but no home videos show in the video app on the iPhone.
