Has anybody given this a thought lately? I haven't seen it mention in
any release notes, so I imagine the problem remains although a year has
gone by since I first posted this.

Title:
  Profiles can't be changed directly

Status in OpenShot Video Editor:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I have been struggeling a bit with the use of profiles, but I think I have worked it out now. And as far as I can see it does not work the way it should. The profile you use has to match the source material, that's fine. But it seems like OpenShot will only use the profile that is set as default at startup.
  This means that if you start OpenShot, choose a different profile than the default for your project and start editing, you're in trouble. And if you go the way of File>New project where you get the "Create new project" dialog box and choose a new profile there, then you are also in trouble, because in both cases OpenShot will continue to use the default profile.
  The only way to start using a new profile is to first choose it as default, then close and reopen OpenShot. This is very cumbersome and not the way it should be. One should be able to choose the right profile and then start working directly, both after starting OpenShot and when using File>New project.

  Also, the manual should say more than it does about the use of
  profiles. I have some thoughts about it and I'd be happy to write a
  draft of the chapter, but it really should work the right way first.

  My OpenShot version is 1.2.2.
