order to do that, follow these instructions.

• Launch the Settings app using the Siri Remote on
  your Apple TV.
• Go to General gt Screensaver gt Type.

  several options, with Aerial set as default.
• Here you can choose from the Apple Photos, My
  Photos, Home Sharing and My Music whichever
  suits you.

change the transition style in Aerial but for a
different Screensaver Type, you can choose from
several transition styles such as Cascade,
