FFmpeg continues to process after time specified at "-to"

Question

I have a video, where I want to cut a part from the beginning, and from the end. And I want to apply some fade ins/fade outs, and add some text.

So, I came up with the following syntax:

-ss 10 -to 40 
-i "D:\DATA\Software\VideoProcessor_Files\20171015 Zelhem Tandem Frans met Mirthe.MP4" 
-loop 1 -i "Input_Files\logo maurik large.png" 
-loop 1 -i "Input_Files\logo maurik small.png" 
-filter_complex "

    [grey_for_fade_out]fade=t=out:st=12:d=2:alpha=1[grey_fade_out];
    [0:v][grey_fade_out]overlay[video_grey_fade_out];
    color=0x7F7F7F@0.95:1920x1080[grey_for_fade_in];
    [grey_for_fade_in]fade=t=in:st=37:d=2:alpha=1[grey_fade_in];
    [video_grey_fade_out][grey_fade_in]overlay[video_grey_fade_out_in];
    [1:v]fade=t=out:st=13:d=2:alpha=1[over];
    [over]scale=iw/1.5:-1[scaled];
    [video_grey_fade_out_in][scaled]overlay=(main_w-overlay_w)/2:(main_h-overlay_h)/10[video_grey_fade_out_in_logo];
    [1:v]fade=t=in:st=36:d=2:alpha=1[over2];
    [over2]scale=iw/1.5:-1[scaled2];
    [video_grey_fade_out_in_logo][scaled2]overlay=(main_w-overlay_w)/2:(main_h-overlay_h)/2[video_grey_fade_out_in_logo2];
    [2:v]colorchannelmixer=aa=0.5,fade=t=in:st=14:d=2:alpha=1,fade=t=out:st=35:d=2:alpha=1[over3];
    [over3]scale=iw/10:-1[scaled3];
    [video_grey_fade_out_in_logo2][scaled3]overlay=10:10[video_complete];
    [video_complete]drawtext=fontfile=Input_Files/Sansation-Bold.ttf:text='Tandemvlucht met Mirthe':fontsize=96:fontcolor=white:alpha='if(lt(t,11),1,(2-(t-11))/2)':x=(w-text_w)/2:y=((h-text_h)/2)+125,drawtext=fontfile=Input_Files/Sansation-Bold.ttf:text='Zeddam':fontsize=96:fontcolor=white:alpha='if(lt(t,11),1,(2-(t-11))/2)':x=(w-text_w)/2:y=((h-text_h)/2)+250,drawtext=fontfile=Input_Files/Sansation-Bold.ttf:text='4 augustus 2020':fontsize=96:fontcolor=white:alpha='if(lt(t,11),1,(2-(t-11))/2)':x=(w-text_w)/2:y=((h-text_h)/2)+375,drawtext=fontfile=Input_Files/Sansation-Bold.ttf:text='Ook een keer meevliegen?':fontsize=96:fontcolor=white:alpha='if(lt(t,37),0,(t-37)/2)':x=(w-text_w)/2:y=((h-text_h)/6),drawtext=fontfile=Input_Files/Sansation-Bold.ttf:text='Of bel 085 - 049 55 69':fontsize=96:fontcolor=white:alpha='if(lt(t,37),0,(t-37)/2)':x=(w-text_w)/2:y=((h-text_h)/2)+350"

I am quite sure this has worked in the past, but now FFmpeg just keeps on processing endlessly. If I then stop the FFmpeg process, and look at the resulting file, I see that the last frame (of the end of the specified period) just keeps on duplicating.

The drop counter in the console output of FFmpeg also starts increasing at the end of the specified period:

frame=  987 fps= 15 q=-1.0 Lsize=   31357kB time=00:00:41.04 bitrate=6259.0kbits/s dup=0 drop=10 speed=0.644x

I am kind of lost on why this doesn't work anymore. I might have upgraded the FFmpeg executable in the mean time. Maybe my syntax was/is not correct, but I believe it just worked.

It has to be in the complex filter, because when I remove that, it works alright. It is not in the drawtext part of the complex filter, because it still occurs when I remove that. And when I only do the drawtext, FFmpeg stops correctly at the specified time.

I have tried this, but then it still occurs:

-filter_complex "
    color=0x7F7F7F@0.95:1920x1080[grey_for_fade_out];
    [grey_for_fade_out]fade=t=out:st=12:d=2:alpha=1[grey_fade_out];
    [0:v][grey_fade_out]overlay[video_grey_fade_out];
    color=0x7F7F7F@0.95:1920x1080[grey_for_fade_in];
    [grey_for_fade_in]fade=t=in:st=37:d=2:alpha=1[grey_fade_in];
    [video_grey_fade_out][grey_fade_in]overlay"

Also with this, it still occurs:

-filter_complex "
    [1:v]fade=t=out:st=13:d=2:alpha=1[over];
    [over]scale=iw/1.5:-1[scaled];
    [0:v][scaled]overlay=(main_w-overlay_w)/2:(main_h-overlay_h)/10[video_grey_fade_out_in_logo];
    [1:v]fade=t=in:st=36:d=2:alpha=1[over2];
    [over2]scale=iw/1.5:-1[scaled2];
    [video_grey_fade_out_in_logo][scaled2]overlay=(main_w-overlay_w)/2:(main_h-overlay_h)/2[video_grey_fade_out_in_logo2];
    [2:v]colorchannelmixer=aa=0.5,fade=t=in:st=14:d=2:alpha=1,fade=t=out:st=35:d=2:alpha=1[over3];
    [over3]scale=iw/10:-1[scaled3];
    [video_grey_fade_out_in_logo2][scaled3]overlay=10:10"

I just don't understand. All my fade-ins/-outs seem to be within the specified range:

fade=t=out:st=12:d=2: start at 12 seconds, duration 2 seconds. This ends at 14 seconds, which is smaller than 40 seconds.
fade=t=in:st=37:d=2: start at 37 seconds, duration 2 seconds. This ends at 39 seconds, which is smaller than 40 seconds.
fade=t=out:st=13:d=2: start at 13 seconds, duration 2 seconds. This ends at 15 seconds, which is smaller than 40 seconds.
fade=t=in:st=36:d=2: start at 36 seconds, duration 2 seconds. This ends at 38 seconds, which is smaller than 40 seconds.

It is just like some sequence is not ended properly, which is causing FFmpeg to just continue.
