There doesn't appear to be much on it - not in the wiki anyway. Feel
free to contribute when you've got the hang of it.

Searching this list turns up the following -
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/430461#430461

But again, not much there.

The header file from the original commit is at -
http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/browser/trunk/mythtv/libs/libmythtv/importrecorder.h?rev=23044

and the pertinent comments within it seem to be lines 17 through 21:

brief ImportRecorder imports files, creating a seek map and other
stuff that MythTV likes to have for recording.
note This currently only supports MPEG-TS files, but the plan is to
support all files that ffmpeg does.

Good luck
