Does FIOS transmit any XDS information? You could run mythbackend with
-v vbi and see if you get things like callsign or show title during a
recording/playback. Otherwise, does FIOS have a "tv guide" type channel
that you could correlate what you're watching with what is on. There's
only so many possibilities I suppose and the content of the program
should give you some clues...
