[Ken Bass]

Try running the myth.rebuilddatabase.pl PERL script that is in the contrib
directory. It will update your database based on the files present.

Then copied them back. I was thinking it would be easy, but no! After copying back into /var/lib/mythtv they do not show as watchable shows in the TV section of Mythtv. How would I get Mythtv to see those recorded programs for me to be able to watch? Do I have the right folder? I thought that was where I copied them from in the first place.
