Yes, of course …standard procedere

Yes, I have to go physically to the control panel and "re-set" the input, but … not every time, only once after rebooting the system

Yes

No thats not the case.
Just focus on the moment after rebooting / launching the system. When you open FCP log and capture window first before opening the Desktop Video settings you will not get a picture, even the video format matches.
