Do you use xmltv for your channelinfo. You than also have to remove it
there! I had that long time ago and it took me quit a while to find
that. Go to .xmltv in the mythtv home directory and remove the line
for the channel in the conf file for your grabber (or put a # in
front). Else myth will keep recreating the channel to link the channel
info to.
