I also have an RPi 3B+ and did a fresh installation of v10.0.2. However, this latest version can not play x265 videos and even some x264 files. Later I gave up and downgrade to v9.2.8. I guess RPi 3B+'s hardware is just not powerful enough for v10.0.2. There are some other threads discussing about this already.

If you watch H265 videos, you will see the lags.
See this.

Probably the video codec was H.265/HEVC.
Kodi 18 (and previous) on RPi2/3 was capable of decoding some H265 streams up to 1080p due to very specialized decoder optimizations.
Kodi 19 cannot use these optimizations, it uses normal software decoding, therefore performance for H265 goes down significantly on these platforms.
You can read more about this elsewhere. People who need the old H265 performance should stay on LE9.
You are spot on.

Hello. Is libreelec 10.0.2 gui supposed to run visibly slower than 9.2.8 on rpi3b+?
I have been using 9.2.8 (and before that older 9.2.x) for quite long time and the gui was just mooth.
10.0.2 looks much sharper but I can feel it is slower (like longer reaction time, something like fps drop, etc.).
note: I performed clean installation of 10.0.2 without loading backup from 9.2.8.
I can't tell the difference for GUI. However, LE10.0.2 drops frames when playing videos on my RPi 3B+.

I tried LE10.0.2 on my RPi 3B+ yesterday, but the performance was not satisfactory. When I played 1920x1080P mp4 files, it was dropping frames and sometimes the video and audio were not in sync. Later I switched back to LE9.2.8. Bummer.

You need a longer sleep. Try 45s which works for me. You may need some trial and error to get the optimal time.
Also, you need to turn off "Keep audio device alive" in Settings/System/Audio. Actually, Kodi does not turn it off right away. The audio device keeps on for about 10sec.
The idea is to start squeezelite after Kodi releases the audio device, or squeezelite won't start. During Kodi start up, DO NOT touch remote or mouse. That will keep audio device alive longer.
I see you use "-C 1". That's kinda short for me. I use "-C 10", same idea as Kodi releasing audio device.

I have had no problem using Bluetooth since I switched to LibreELEC two years ago due to BT issues of old OSMC. I have used many versions of LE and now it is 9.2.8 on my RPi3B+.

I have been notified for this new update since I got in the WebUI about 10 days ago. However, I still can't find it via LibreELEC addon. How do I update it? Thanks.
-
For LbreELEC, you only need to install Multimedia Tools addon which already includes Squeezelite.
To run Squeezelite, in SSH console, type "squeezelite", no " ".

Finally I got it working.
Just follow Iridium's post in #5. But for step 4, you need to find the latest release on https://github.com/linuxserver/do…ompose/releases
For my RPi 3B+, I use https://github.com/linuxserver/do…r-compose-armhf. Then place this link back to the code in step 4 as
curl -L "https://github.com/linuxserver/do…r-compose-armhf" -o /storage/bin/docker-compose
and it works like a charm.
