Mike,

In case you didn't see my reply to this question in your previous
thread (I said use the channel editor, but didn't give more detailed
info):

i) select the channels (one by one) in the channel editor that are using DVB.
ii) press Enter and you will get the properties for the channel - at
the bottom is a checkbox to determine whether the channel will use the
on-air EPG.
iii) deselect that for each channel, and you should be good.

Alternatively, as Justin pointed out, you can just run a SQL query to
do this. You can use a query to 'fix' all your DVB channels in one go,
but it's safer to use the channel editor unless you're sure your query
will work!

Nick
