>> Title:
>>   On exporting video, Openshot can overwrite a source file
>>
>> Status in OpenShot Video Editor:
>>   Confirmed
>>
>> Bug description:
>>   Reproducing:
>>
>>   Openshot 1.4.1
>>
>>   Add 1 source video.
>>    Click file->export video.
>>
>>   Select same folder as source file.
>>
>>   Name the exported file name the same as the source file.
>>
>>   select same file format as the source file
>>
>>   Click export video.
>>
>>   The source file is overwritten.  Final exported file is also black
>>   screen video with flickering white spots.
>>
>>   Just to make the program more robust-userfriendly, probably be nice to
>>   not enable the user to export to the same source file.
>>
>>   It's not critical, but if it happens to an unsuspecting new user who
>>   doesnt have a copy of his source project file, it would result in bad
>>   experience.
>>
>>   One reason why user might want to save to the same filename, is for
>> example editing a single video clip.
>>   (expecting it to behave like a word processor, where overwriting means
>> saving the last instance of the file)
>>
>>   If a user knew what would happen (exporting still needs to read from
>>   the original file which is being overwritten to), no one would want to
>>   do that.
