I don't think there is an official recomendation but:-
I use a TBS 6285 PCIe Card (4 Tuners) on my Win 10 HTPC and an external USB TBS 5881 (1 Tuner) on my Win 10 Desktop for OTA German Full HD TV, both work well. TBS have a comprehensive range of tuners for the various means of receiving TV but please check restrictions in MP if you want to view encypted broadcasts.

Can you copy the created ts file(located in your timeshift folder) somewhere else while in channel preview and try to play it in VLC or MPC-HC?

Actually, you just reminded me of how I have handled this in the past: I merged the contents of an old export.xml with a new one to make a complete file containing the old values I needed and the new values I didn't want to change. Why should it matter if the export file is missing some values? I would expect the import process to...

Perhaps... Only way to confirm would be for me to invest in a different USB DVB-S2 tuner (like the Hauppauge WinTV-NOVA-S2), which I might do if the issue persists.
