Please try with the current Kdenlive AppImage version 20.08.2 to see if there are any packaging issues https://download.kde.org/stable/kdenlive/20.08/linux/ 

If the problem/issue doesn't occur when using the AppImage, then it's your configuration or packaging.

Thank you for your reply. 
I tried again today and it worked like a charm. I didn't update my system between the different tries but I may have rebooted few times.
Maybe the bug wasn't kdenlive related. It could be more related to my own config.
I'm sorry to have opened this bug for nothing.
Thank you again !

Today I had the freezes and crashes again. It also happened just by creating a new project (I mean setting 1080, 25fps without even adding any tracks).

It must have something to do with JACK (audio connection kit) because when I stopped JACK and switched to pulseaudio it worked.

I realized that if I create a new project in kdenlive, and add tracks before I start JACK, everything is fine. If I launch JACK before kdenlive though, it makes kdenlive freeze when adding a track or creating a new project.

Hopefully this will help
