[TYPO3-dam] Media types and file types

[Francois Suter]

Hi Uschi,

It's in EXT:dam/lib/tx_dam_types.php. It's all stored in 
$GLOBALS['T3_VAR']['ext']['dam'][...]

> 2) Is there a way to change that preconfiguration?

I suppose you can try changing that in your typo3conf/localconf.php or 
create an extension change it in your extension, provided your extension 
is loaded after the dam. This is really messy and I wonder why it's not 
in $TYPO3_CONF_VARS, but maybe there's something I don't know...

I don't think this can be modified at all...

Cheers
