[TYPO3-dev] File Management: Importing files outside of /uploads/pics

[Bastiaan Zapf]

How can I store a file in an arbitary path under
Typo3's Control and then create (for instance) a
textpic, that can access it? The image field in
"textpic" only stores the filename, not the path
(which defaults to /uploads/pics or something),
afaics. Do I somehow have to add a file administration
row? I'm on Typo3 v4 and Plan to use DAM, so I'd also
want to add metadata. The DAM API has a few calls to
do exactly this, but these are left blank afaics.

We're importing a rather large image Database (>
50.000 files) to Typo3, and we'll need to keep some
order.

Thanks in advance,

   Basti
