You need 2 lineups and 2 MythTV video sources.  You need to ensure that 
both the analog and the digital lineup have only the channels you get on 
those sources.

I recommend you clean up what you have, now, with Delete all video 
sources (as at 
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/264034#264034 ) and 
be certain that your video sources are using the proper Schedules Direct 
lineup (there may be a display issue where it "resets" the lineup when 
you're in the editor, so it may be switching the video source that's 
supposed to use the analog lineup to use the digital lineup, and you 
don't want to save it in the "reset" state, so always check the lineup 
before leaving the video sources setup page).
