I got mythburn and haphazardly ran the install script.

I guess so, huh ;) ?
 

I told it to use my /video directory for temporary storage of files.

bad idea. it's a temp *DIR*... never really checked, but I could believe that mythburn cleans up the temp dir when it's done.

  When I went to run mythburn over the web it seemed to work fine.  On looking at my system, however, I noticed that the /video directory was now empty and the owner of the directory had changed to apache (who I had entered as the owner of httpd in the install script.  Now when I go to the "Recorded Programs" page on MythWeb it still shows all of the shows that were recorded.

Yeah, because the recordings are still in the database. You'll need to purge them out of database manually :(

I have tried deleting them but they won't go away.

I've had a few video files that disappeared that leave  orphan/undeletable entries in the  recording database too... while I can delete them manually, it  would be nice if regular "delete" would delete the database entry even if the file doesn't exist.
