I think most of the people had this problem, first I import my Sony photo files into the library then I did my son Sony photo files into the library , both have the same DSCXXXXX files name , once inside the library the same file name overlay each others and I am unable to select the photo I wanted. Is it possible for the developer to detect this in the program to mention there is a same files name imported before

It appears to be another software error.
My suggestion to get around this is to add the photos directly to the timeline.
This way you can add the same photo or with the same name as many times as you want.

Drag and drop to the video track.

You might be able to change the prefix on your files in you Sony settings so you never overlap.
