I'm not sure about other ways but looking at the source of the script:
options:
71
<http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/browser/trunk/mythtv/contrib/myth.find_orphans.pl#L71>
--host=(host) MythTV backend host ($opt_host)
72
<http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/browser/trunk/mythtv/contrib/myth.find_orphans.pl#L72>
--dbhost=(host) host where MySQL database for backend
is ($opt_dbhost)
73
<http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/browser/trunk/mythtv/contrib/myth.find_orphans.pl#L73>
--database=(dbname) MythTV database ($opt_database)
74
<http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/browser/trunk/mythtv/contrib/myth.find_orphans.pl#L74>
--user=(user) MySQL MythTV database user ($opt_user)
75
<http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/browser/trunk/mythtv/contrib/myth.find_orphans.pl#L75>
--pass=(pass) MySQL MythTV database password ($opt_pass)
76
<http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/browser/trunk/mythtv/contrib/myth.find_orphans.pl#L76>
--dir=directories manually specify recording directories
(otherwise setting is from database)
77
<http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/browser/trunk/mythtv/contrib/myth.find_orphans.pl#L77>
--debug increase debug level
78
<http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/browser/trunk/mythtv/contrib/myth.find_orphans.pl#L78>
--dodbdelete remove recorded db entries with no
matching file (default: don't)
79
<http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/browser/trunk/mythtv/contrib/myth.find_orphans.pl#L79>
--dodelete delete files wit
I would try running the script with the option --dbhost=localhost
Also, to just get a feeling for what the script is doing, add --debug
