ffmpeg stops exporting images when using overlay

Question

I am using ffmpeg to stream first 35 seconds of a movie over udp .. in the process of showing a preview of this movie while streaming i reached this command

ffmpeg.exe -re -t 00:00:35.000 -i input.mp4 -i overlay.png -filter_complex "[0:v]scale=1200:720[scaled];[1:v]scale=150:-1[overl],[scaled][overl]overlay=main_w-overlay_w-10:10[logo]" -map "[logo]" -map 0:a -c:a copy  -c:v libx264 -f mpegts udp://224.2.2.1:1234 -vf fps=4 -s 320x240 -update 1 -y preview.jpg

the problem is .. if i don't use the overlay i get my preview.jpg perfectly, but when i do .. ffmpeg streams ok but without creating the jpg image ..

any idea ?? please.

thank you.

The final processed stream has to be cloned and mapped, so for the given command,

ffmpeg.exe -re -t 00:00:35.000 -i input.mp4 -i overlay.png -filter_complex "[0:v]scale=1200:720[scaled];[1:v]scale=150:-1[overl];[scaled][overl]overlay=main_w-overlay_w-10:10,split=2[logo][preview];[preview]fps=4,scale=320x240[preview]" -map "[logo]" -map 0:a -c:a copy  -c:v libx264 -f mpegts udp://224.2.2.1:1234 -map "[preview]" -update 1 -y preview.jpg

(The issue corrected here has nothing to do with the updating of a single image).
