I don't really understand what you are trying to do, neither from this
sentence:

If I'd now like to skip the first 10 seconds of the overlay in order to
line up the timing better I try to use:
"Line up timing" or "time shift" are nice terms, but all "-ss" does it
to shift the starting point of the input file to a certain point. E.g.
"-ss 10" skips the first 10 seconds.

The png input is not a single static image, it is a sequence of images, i.e. a video in png format. Like mjpeg but png. There is one image per second as the overlay is not static, it's showing GPS info (speed, track position, etc). The problem I have is that it's not trivial to synchronize the overlay with the video. I generate the overlay from a GPS track recording and the video comes from an action cam. So after generating the overlay I'd like to tweak the synchronization by skipping a few frames at the start of either of the video or of the overlay. Does that make sense?

Thanks!

Thorsten
