Pleeease don't guess, especially when using sudo.

Since there are no other files there, use the command exactly as I suggested:

     sudo visudo -f /etc/sudoers.d/mythtv

It will start an editor and let you paste the necessary line in
the file as well as creating the file with the proper mode and
owner.

AND:

You restarted your backend, but forgot to add the desired logging.
Type this (you must do it each time the backend is restarted until
this gets resolved:

      mythbackend --setverbose idle,system

Wait 5 minutes and do this (so we don't have to see the entire log:)

     sed -n '11900,$p' /var/log/mythtv/mythbackend.log | pastebinit
