Dropping the same file on losslesscut window ignores it. I think it's a bug because: #1256

I have a lot of issues to go through, so in order to make it easier for me to help you, I ask that you please try these things first

Operating System

Windows 10

Steps to reproduce

I wanted to merge a bunch of files together repeatedly (think making like 1 hour youtube video) which would involve repeating a bunch of same small clips over and over. I selected ~8 files and dropped them, resulting in a merge window appearing.
I wanted to add them again, and dropped the same 8 again, but nothing happened.

I ended up merging 8 clips once, then opening a new project, merging result of the previous merge twice, then again.
Seems kinda silly.

Expected behavior

Dropping same files should just add them to merge list again? I think.

Actual behavior

Additional drops were ignored.

This would be a feature request. Unfortuantely I don't think it's so easy to implement because the file path is used as a unique key (index) in the code, so it cannot be duplicated.

As a workaround can you duplicate the file (or use links?)

Ah, I see.
I thought it was specifically made to ignore dupes.
Because technically in ffmpeg command line you can specify multiple copies of same file and it would merge them happily.
Hm..

I will close this, because it's very closely related to #597 - because more people are asking for it, maybe i could implement it in the future
