So, basically, I keep two different OBS profiles. One called "Recording" and one called "Streaming", and I do this because I don't have the greatest upstream currently, so the "Streaming" profile is lower resolution (410p) than the "Recording" profile (720p).
Went to stream something tonight, updated to 17.0.0, and even though I was on my "Streaming" profile, my stream still went out in 720p.

Actually, according to the stats there, it went out in a weird resolution -- 1278x720p, even though, by all accounts, OBS Studio is set to scale down to 728x410. It's set to scale to that resolution in the "Output" settings, and it's set to scale to that resolution in the "Video" settings, but for some reason, OBS still pushed it out at the wrong resolution.
Looking at the log, OBS Studio registers that I switched to the "Streaming" profile and says it changed my output resolution accordingly.
This is me starting OBS up at 8:36pm
Two seconds later, I switch to the Streaming profile. Resolution is adjusted accordingly.
Three minutes later, after alerting friends via social media, I start streaming.
A little over two hours later, I end the stream...
And reset my profile back to "Recording" before closing OBS.
And yet, according to my Twitch archive, I streamed the entire time in 720p.
