[TYPO3-english] Override l10n field labels in filelist module?

[Dennis Luemkemann]

Hello all,

I’m trying to customize the translation of a field in the filelist module (6.2.14). The exact field is "note" in sys_file_metadata. I tried it the usual way:

plugin.tx_filemetadata_pi1._LOCAL_LANG.de.sys_file_metadata.note = myLabel

but that didn’t work. (Neither plugin.tx_filemetadata._LOCAL_LANG….)

I guess this is because filemetadata is a sysext.

How can I override the translations of a sysext via Typoscript?

Thanks
Dennis
