I'd heard that the blanking was the STB retuning to the channel it was on in case the channel has changed frequency or been deleted. It certainly isn't because the new guide is sorted out in preference to decoding the picture, as the STB has separate processors to deal with these (regular processor and MPEG video processor).
Why the guide download can't contain a summary of channel changes, so the STB can work out IF it needs a retune, I have no idea.
