Hi Fabian

No, that has nothing todo with DAM!!

The behaviour of normal image form fields in content elements or any extension 
is not changed, and cannot be changed. So copying to uploads/media/ is the 
default TYPO3 functionality of fi.e handling.

To use file references in an extension, the extension needs to be adapted to 
use DAM. 
Isn't there an tt_news-dam connector extension available?
