Here is the link to the forum post:

http://community.charter.com/t5/TV-and-Equipment/Almost-all-non-premium-channels-have-quot-copyonce-quot-flag-set/td-p/18425

You can also send them a tweet to @charter or post in dslreports.
Their social media reps seem to be very effective at solving issues
for their customers.

good luck
