Description
Two scenarios need to be covered:
TYPO3 < 4.7 without DAM installed¶
All media files reside either in fileadmin or in uploads. The files from uploads need to be copied to a place in fileadmin, after that a sys_file DB entry must be added for each file. Then for each file usage a sys_file_reference needs to be added.
TYPO3 < 4.7 with DAM installed¶
- For eaxch tx_dam entry a sys_file entry needs to be written.
- If dam_ttcontent is used, for each tx_dam_mm_ref a sys_file_reference needs to be written.
- If dam_filelinks is used, for each tx_dam_mm_ref a sys_file_reference needs to be written (CE Filelinks).
- If dam_ttnews is used, for each tx_dam_mm_ref a sys_file_reference needs to be written.
- The <media> tag in each bodytext fierld from tt_content (and maybe other extensions using an RTE) needs to be adjusted to the sys_file item instead of the tx_dam item.
- Cleaup.

As info, the migration script from Benni is available at https://github.com/b13/t3ext-dam_falmigration in the form of an extension. It includes a few scheduler tasks and a BE module. I have not tested the script but I like the idea of shipping that as a standalone extension which has the advantage of not bloating Media with some code that we can not get rid of in the long term.

Very nice approach! I've tested this, but where to give feedback?

For bugs and issues, I guess you can report on the Github Bug tracker of the project. If your feedback is more general, report on this ticket. I am in contact with Benni.
