How get more debug info for “No information found for item…”

I have a problem where a show I have episodes for is getting:

Code:
07:59:23 T:140633813518080 WARNING: No information found for item '/video/mythvideo/Television/The National/', it won't be added to the library.

But even in debug mode I can't seem to get more information about *why* it's happening. The TVDB entry for the show is:

http://thetvdb.com/?tab=series&id=284879&lid=7

and as you can see, it has no episodes. That's probably because it's a daily news show. But my scraper for those episodes creates their own .nfo files such as:

Code:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<episodedetails>
  <title>22:26:13-2016-10-02 The National - Full Show - The National for October 02, 2016</title>
  <showtitle>The National</showtitle>
  <season>2016</season>
  <episode>276</episode>
  <uniqueid>2016276</uniqueid>
  <aired>2016-10-02</aired>
  <runtime>50</runtime>
</episodedetails>

And I have created a tvshow.nfo file for the show:

Code:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<tvshow>
  <title>The National</title>
  <rating>8.8</rating>
  <year>2014</year>
  <plot>The news!</plot>
  <episodeguide>
    <url>http://thetvdb.com/api/9DAF49C96CBF8DAC/series/284879/all/en.zip</url>
  </episodeguide>
  <episodeguideurl>http://thetvdb.com/api/9DAF49C96CBF8DAC/series/284879/all/en.zip</episodeguideurl>
  <mpaa />
  <id>284879</id>
  <genre>News</genre>
  <premiered>2002-10-01</premiered>
  <studio>CBC</studio>
</tvshow>

But clearly there is something that the metadata scraper doesn't like. So how do I get more detailed debug about what exactly it doesn't like?

What makes all of this very odd is that these .nfo files have worked for many months until now.

[UK] Tip for low cost IR MS MCE remotes

Not sure if this is the right place to put this - but if you're in the UK and looking for a low cost RC6 USB IR receiver solution (and bundled remote) then Maplin's clearance shop has them for £3.99 on eBay. Postage is quite steep, but if you buy more than one it doesn't increase much. I bought two for £11.99 delivered. Not bad value.

They are the standard European Rosewill, fully MS MCE compatible USB dongle with a standard black, rectangular Vista+Win 7 MCE remote (With the round green button rather than the square one) with the European Teletext and Fastext buttons. I've found them a great fit with Kodi, particularly if you use a PVR solution for TV viewing. These are proper MS Home HID type solutions, not a keyboard HID device. Sadly, unlike the original silver MS XP MCE remote, there is no backlight.

Product codes on them are :

USB Receiver : IR605A/Q
IR Remote : RC118 (A49HA)

Both my boxes were still sealed.

I've had great success with them in LibreElec on Raspberry Pis and Chromeboxes (I sometimes use the bundled remote but often use a One4All)

This used to retail at £20 until recently (retail price is now £7.20 - so it looks like they are trying to shift them.

kodi.wiki

Would Team Kodi like to tell me why the hell they are removing my access to the Kodi wiki, which also removes my ability to grant new accounts, block spammers, and make backups (the only backups that exist, by the way, are the ones I manually make)? Do you even understand what it takes to keep that thing going?

No one talks to me about this, no one even attempts to discuss it with me. Why? Because certain people don't like me on a personal level. The only person who let me know what was going on convinced me it wasn't worth fighting over (now that rob has left), and I gave in to ronie's demand that his repo page be blanked. After that happens, you cowards go behind my back and remove my access, and I only find out about it because I am no longer able to grant a new user his account.

On top of that, you've got wsnipex‎ removing access to people like Gamester17, who is still active and still a team member.

How is any of this acceptable? On what planet does this count as reasonable behavior?
