Scott:

I too have just discovered Fios has added BBC America HD.  I did a
simple "mythfilldatabase" with no parameters and it seems to work, at
least for me.

One thing to note, at least in my guide Fios lists the end of season 6
and the start of season 7 as a single episode with the title of the
end of season 6, so my system had marked it as a duplicate and was not
going to record it, so I had to force a record.
