Depends if you really never want to see them or just hide them for
normal every day use.

For the latter you can use the favorite system: press ? when you have a
channel selected (watching TV or browsing the EPG) will set/unset that
channel as a favorite. Pressing 4 in the EPG will toggle between showing
only favorites or showing all channels. When watching live TV pressing /
will jump to the next favorite channel.

If you really want to get rid of some channels (becuase you're sure
you'd _never_ want to watch them or because like me you don't receive
them) you could go into the database, into the channels table and set
the channum field of the unwanted channels to NULL. The EPG and Mythweb2
will now ignore those channels completely. This is only available in the
CVS version of MythTV though.

Cheers,
