I'm not a dev, but I believe that mythbackend handles all the scheduling internally. You'll have to talk to the backend in a similar fashion that mythfrontend does (through tcp/ip ?) to retreive upcoming recordings. The first place I'd look for more info is at the source for mythfrontend and see what it does.
