A small user service that watches the webcams listed in its quirks table
and puts a few controls back after any program opens them. Browsers based
on Chromium reset camera controls to their defaults each time they open a
camera, which brings broken automatic modes back.
First entry: OBSBOT Tiny cameras (USB vendor 3564), whose automatic white
balance turns the picture cyan-green. The service holds a fixed 4500 K.
Webcams that are not in the table keep their automatic behaviour. The
service sleeps without any wakeup while no listed camera is opened.
Install
