If you did:

http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Database_Backup_and_Restore#Change_the_hostname_of_a_MythTV_frontend_or_backend

you would have followed the correct procedure, and all would have been 
updated.

Based on your symptoms, it sounds like you followed:

http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Backend_migration#Retiring_an_old_backend

which is the "I didn't follow the correct procedure, so now everything 
is messed up, so how do I start cleaning things up?" procedure.
