Thanks for your report. Could you please try the latest 25.08 version to see if the problem still occurs ? 
It is available as an AppImage to download from our website, https://kdenlive.org/download.
Just make the file executable and double click to run it.
Thanks in advance for your feedback

Video looks good and no errors reported.  Also, no log file created.

Thanks for the quick fix!

PS I also noticed a couple of other differences from my installed version:
1. The audio track, in the kdenlive gui, is showing two voice signals 
(presumably stereo), rather than just one.
2. The rendered image file is smaller (15% smaller), but same apparent 
visual quality.
