Thanks for your report. The same problem has been reported a few weeks back.
What happens exactly is this: when overlay gets a frame on its main input,
it requests one on the overlay one, and that causes split to send one again,
first on overlay's main input.

I have a general fix in the works, but it is not ready yet. In the meantime,
you can stop the loop by inserting a fifo filter somewhere in it.
