I've just hooked my Serviio box up to my Humax Foxsat HDR running custom firmware (essentially to have Samba running on it to share recorded programmes) and I noticed a similar issue.
The .ts file plays fine in XBMC ; but my Bravia KDL-40CX523 and KDL-22EX320 both attempt to playback but greet me with a blank screen.
ffmpeg shows the file as:

Nothing untoward there other than additional PID details along with null streams. As such I decided I couldn't be bothered delving into the issue and decided we'll force Serviio to transcode the .ts file regardless.
So I made the following change to profile id 9 -Sony Bravia TV (2011) at the start of the transcoding section just after the section for dvr-ms files:
- Code:
<!-- For dvr-ms files force mpeg2video transcoding to fix monotone timestamps problems -->
<Video targetContainer="mpegts" targetACodec="ac3" forceVTranscoding="true" forceInheritance="true">
<Matches container="asf" vCodec="mpeg2video" />
<!-- Force transcoding for mpegts files from Humax Foxsat DVR -->
<Matches container="mpegts" vCodec="mpeg2video" />
</Video>
I recommend this is added to the profile in the next release as I cannot see forcing the .ts to be transcoded hurting in most cases and I suspect a lot of people with content from DVR / PVRs would be having the same issues.
