If you have your own library of stuff and know how to setup automated downloads, you can use Emby or Jellyfin as your media server and Infuse as your player. This has been my setup for years and it's flawless. It does require a purchase of Infuse (either yearly or lifetime) though. If you want to go cheaper you could use the native Jellyfin app or one of the few clients for AppleTV that are free. I would suggest Infuse though because it's so good.
If you're trying to access somebody else's stuff, then it depends on what they use. Most likely you'd be using Plex though due to its popularity.

Ok, yeah I don’t think I’ll make my own library. Do you use other people’s servers? I see plex got lifetime membership of $90, I just want to access to movies and shows
Unless you're in the Apple ecosystem, I would suggest considering an Nvidia Shield.
Yeah i'm in the apple ecosystem

I do not. I personally hate Plex. But I have all my equipment set up to do everything myself so I would never need it anyway.
