Fixed the problem - just had to learn a spot of SQL, so no-one needs  
to answer this question.

For future reference for those who can't be bothered to learn SQL,  
the SQL syntax is:

USE mythconverg;
SELECT hostname FROM recorded; (to confirm the problem)
UPDATE recorded SET hostname = 'new_hostname' WHERE hostname =  
'old_hostname';

Thanks to all for your help!
