There are a few things to check.
If you’ve recently installed an update for macOS, you may need to disable and then re-enable File Sharing to get it working again. You can also try one of the tips found here. https://www.stratospherix.com/articles/fb141019.php
Note: iCloud username/password cannot be used. If you’re using an iCloud ID to log in to your Mac, you will need to set up a new ‘Sharing Only’ user as described here: Change Users & Groups settings on Mac - Apple Support

Same issue. Infuse see’s my Drobo NAS files fine on my Mac, but when it comes to AppleTV it sees the folders but says they are all empty.
Have you walked through the steps posted above? SMB streaming from Mac needs to be enabled in kind of a specific way, so if you miss one of these it can lead to connection issues like this.
Also (and this may be a silly question) but can you confirm you have video files stored on your Drobo? Other files like audio or PDFs won’t be visible in Infuse.
Yes, I have multiple types of video files on the Drobo. If I use Infuse on my Mac it sees the files properly and can play them. Try it a few minutes later on AppleTV and it says the folders are empty.
Somehow this worked its self out.
