That's the myth.rebuilddatabase.pl script from the contrib directory.  
It doesn't actually rebuild the database in the sense of  
reconstructing lost columns or anything. Instead it compares the  
contents of the tv recordings directory with the db and tries to help  
you recover lost files. You can also use it to import non-myth videos  
so they'll show up in the TV recordings list.
