But it doesn't work when I use the myblaster to send the signals to the STB. I've noticed that learning the same button on the remote multiple times produces a different result every time. So I think it isn't learning the commands correctly.

Often if you go to the cable office with your unit and just tell them "it's broke" they'll hand you another one, it might be off-spec just enough to still work with the STB but not a learner.

The myblaster "learns" the signal straight away when I press the button. That to me means that the myblaster sees a strong clean signal. I could try getting a replacement as a last resort just to eliminate that option.
