RPi2 is new, but not all is like in LE 9.2. As far as i know at least GPU accelerated HEVC playback is no longer available on RPi2/3

PMA1 for the screensave part please try official LE and check if the problem is also there. If not i can not really help, because i just patched in the encryption.
Next on my list is to include clevis, so that i can use NDBE. But i dont thing this year.

Release version 10.0.1-#211029
download link sky42 LibreELEC community builds
based on https://libreelec.tv/2021/11/03/libreelec-matrix-10-0-1/
RPi4 has a bug and is at least cryptsetup missing.
The Allwinner and Rockchip build are absolutly not tested, just build.

matthuo I am sorry the use of ext4 filesystem encryption is very bad documented and the most helpfull would be reading how to use fscryptctl. There is no script to automtic mount these ext4 encryption. I build some rather complicated ones for my self, but they are in no shape to give them away.
The most promising to automate is full disk or partion encrytion with luks and there is plenty of instructions out there how to do it.
With NBDE one can do full disk encryption bound to the nework where servers are to get the decrytion key from (that is over simplyfied), but for that i need at least to put clevis in LE, what i have not yet done. You need at least one tang backend server in the network to automatic decrypt at boot if the OS supports that.
RHEL 7 and 8 (and Clones like CentOS, AlmaLinux and Rocky Linux) do support NBDE and we use it at work.

Release version 10.0.0-#210812 Generic, RPi4, Allwinner and #210830 for Rockchip
download link sky42 LibreELEC community builds
based on LibreELEC (Matrix) 10.0.0 - LibreELEC
I finally made the config for Rockchip, so now all official LE 10 supported architetures are build.
The Allwinner and Rockchip build are absolutly not tested, just build.

pasnox Sorry. Something in 10.0 did break my releases.json creation. I excluded now 10.0 and recreated them for 9.0 and 9.2.

I can definitifly hear the difference between kodi LPCM and my AVR decoding a DTS-HD or TrueHD audio track from a proper made audio track, but that could be just me, because i am nearly blind and have really good hearing.
What kodi can not do with LPCM is any Atmos (with TrueHD or EAC3 core) or DTS:X track. So i need passthrough e.g. for Netflix and/or amazon playing out Atmos tracks EAC3 encoded. The same goes for Atmos or DTS:X from any BD or UHD BD.

trymeout i'd love that too having it for the masses like on the phone or tablet, but that is not that easy
I just switched on the kernel support for it and the tools to use it. What is missing, to give encryption of the LE data to end users, is lots of GUI Software for a normal end user. And to make it more complicated it must be done before mounting /storage, so we dont have any config at all.
The how i know, but i am not the guy to write the GUI software.
I use my own scripts and systemd units to encrypt all of /storage/.kodi and i also know how to do it for /storage, but these scripts are not good enoug documented to give them away without lots of explanations. If somebody is writing the GUI part i do have the rest of the know how to do a fully encrypted /storage and can explain what the GUI has to do.

latest is 10.0.4-230120a
If you have any problems please install offcial LibreELEC version on which my build is based on and test again. If the problem is the same it is most likely not my build.
If you dont use any of the following additions i made, then my images have no benefit for you and you should use the official build.
the following was added in my community build:
- /flash 1024MB
- no GUI tools for the encryptiom, lvm2 or mdraid
- enable kernel config for lvm2 and snapshots (no cache, no thin)
- added lvm2 tools (config is under /storage/.config/lvm)
- enable kernel config for software raid with lvm2 and standalone with mdraid
- added mdraid to control linux software raid
- enable kernel config for dm-crypt to use cryptsetup (compatible with luks, veracrypt, truecrypt)
- added cryptsetup to manage encrypted block devices with luks, veracrypt and some more
- enabled /etc/crypttab support in systemd
- enable kernel config for ext4 filesystem encryption
- added fscryptctl to manage ext4 encryption
- enable kernel config for more crypto modules and options
- curl: enable protocol support for scp, sftp, smb, smbs
- versions: cryptsetup-2.3.7, lvm2-2.03.11, fscryptctl-1.0.0, mdadm-4.1
Builds are done for all official LE 10 supported architectures that are so far Generix x86_64, RPi4, RPi2, Allwinner and Rockchip.
I testet so far only Generic in booting and using cryptsetup.
RPi2, Allwinner or Rockchip is just build and never installed or tested.
The following links are only for people who are interested in the source code of my builds.
