perhaps it is selected in your zap2it profile?  I also think that when
you remove a channel from the channel list in mythtv-setup it just
sets the 'visible' flag to zero in the channels table in the
mythconverg database.  You could always manually remove the entry from
the database and see if it stays away after that.

This will show you the contents of the 'channel' table in the
mythconverg database:

mysqldump -u mythtv -p -a -c mythconverg channel

If you can find out which channel it is you want to remove, determine
the 'chanid' and then you can remove it with

mysql -u mythtv -D mythconverg -p
DELETE from channel WHERE chanid=<chanid of channel you want to delete>;
quit

This should remove all traces of the channel from the database instead
of just setting it 'invisible'.


BTW, i'm also trying to use mythtv and hdtv3000 with qam and comcast,
but i'm having horrible luck.  perhaps you could share some info with
those of us struggling?  I don't know if you took notes about how you
setup to use qam, but if you did that would be great!  Even if you
could post some of the contents of your database that might be
helpful.  I'd personally love to see part or all of the following:

mysqldump -u mythtv -p -a -c mythconverg channel dvb_channel dvb_pids
dtv_multiplex

Cheers,
Adam
