I made several attempts using different settings for the "Typewriter" option (per characters, words, lines), as well as several rendering options that all lead to a crash.
Simply stopping the "Typewriter" mode allows you to resume a good rendering function.
I understand that the timing of character generation is not compatible with encoders.
Event Log mentions a time stamp issue.
Excuse me for the mediocrity  of my English ...

Confirmed on fedora 40 (linux) with kdenlive-25.04.0-3.fc40.x86_64

Steps to reproduce:
-create new project
-add title clip
-write text in the clip (two words will suffice)
-enable "Typewriter effect" (Eg: by char, frame step: 2)
-drop title clip onto timeline
-attempt to render (I used h264/aac)

popup appears with:
 "Rendering of /home/user/untitled.mp4 aborted, resulting video will probably be corrupted.
Frame: 84"
Job queue says "Rendering crashed"

video plays correctly with the animation displaying correctly (I used vlc)
