When I open OBS every time my webcam setting are resetted. Someone know why? It's an OBS "features"?

I think it has to do with DirectShow API:

The Microsoft DirectShow application programming interface (API) is a media-streaming architecture for Microsoft Windows. Using DirectShow, your applications can perform high-quality video and audio playback or capture.

As I understand it, OBS uses it to communicate with the cameras. You can use a program like camooz or camprops to save/restore camera settings and make it easier to get everything back to the way you want it.
