While trying myth.rebuilddatabase.pl for the first time, I did find 
still couple of small issues while importing external video files (AVI).

DB does not accept null values into the time columns. If user does not 
give starttime, script should either use current time or take file 
timestamp and use that. It might suggest one of these values by default.

If 24-hour clock is used and user gives program length in minutes, 
script inserts endtime in 12-hour format to the DB. So that 60min 
program starts 21:00 and ends 10:00. Not sure if frontend cares about 
this but mythweb does not show these programs at all.

Changing time format from HH:mm.. to hh:mm.. in the only time_format() 
call (time_format("yyyy-mm{on}-dd HH:mm{in}:ss" ...) fixes this issue 
for me. Not sure if this is okay for 12-hour users.
