Media module have 4 types of file types, and I can find on admin/config/media/file-types.

These 4 types can attache to field like node entity type.

Then I add a Location module field to Media file types.

after that I create a mediaasset field that have location field on my node content type.

In add content, I submit the file and In edit media, I put some data in location field.

But, nothings saved.

So, I have a question about add field on Media file types. Is it act like a node content type? If so, location field need to be saved.

If not, How can I understand of file types concept?

And I have a curious thing one more.
After enable oEmbed module, I can find "Allowed remote media types" setting on node - content type - field - edit view.
"Allowed remote media types" setting is not Media's function?

It sounds to me like you are having an issue with Location as opposed to Media. But just to be sure, can you verify that you are using the latest dev releases of Media + File Entity and if you still encounter problems, clearly outline the steps taken so we can try to reproduce?

Regarding the file-types concept, File Entity provides five file types, and Media adds one (see http://drupal.org/node/1591498), for you to use. But, unlike D6, media and files are not nodes, they are field-able entities, which can be bundled into nodes of arbitrary type.
