Why does this video show the person switching between banners and posters just fine?
Try a different skin. Some skins use different files with different naming conventions to display the art.
For example, I use Cirrus Extended and I can switch between all view types without getting cropped/distorted images.
How do you set this up?
Set XBMC to scan for poster images.
Open Cirrus Extended and go to the skin settings selection.
At the bottom there is an option for Cirrus Extended Settings
Run the Logo Downloader script.
This script will search you tv show directory and then download appropriate images from thetvdb.com. It will download banner.jpg, landscape.jpg, clearart.png, logo.png. Then you can switch between any view you like without conciquence.
