Unfortunately, none of those codes seem to work.

hmm, I looked at the learns you provided.
Timing and frequency looked to match the timings of the signals I provided you.

I recalculated
0x15 = 21 decimal +64 = 85
0x16 yields 86
0x17 yields 87
0x18 yields 88

All the learns that we gave you should work.

That being said protocol like the RC5 can be very hard to automate. The signals toggle from one press to another, and these learns don't toggle they are static. Some equipment can be very finicky and not respond until they get a keypress in the right toggle state.

The short form of pronto hex that might toggle for you but I don't know how to create it. Even so, getting the toggle bit in the right state can be very difficult to get right.

I brought all my old TVs that used RC5 to get GoodWill and then went around to the front and bought the equivalent TVs that didn't have the toggling protocol. The RC5 is a PITA.

I don't think there is much more that I can help with.

No worries, I appreciate the attempt. Might be time to look at pulling this piece out and using something we know will work.
