As far as I can remember, the btrfs still does not support disk encryption. If you are concern about disk, volume or partition encryption you should use LVM otherwise making a folder encryption with truecrypt or another encryption tool could work for most cases.
He is using LVM, it does not work. It is on his post.
Maybe I understood wrong. He said above (2nd mail) switched from LVM to BTRFS. Not sure how it was the precise procedure to change it. I assume he made it clean. Quoting "I selected LVM with encryption. Then I resized the partition (at this point Ext4) to be as big as possible (as YaST left quite a lot of empty space). Then I changed the root partition to be btrfs" explained HG. I made a LVM setup with openSUSE 12.1 (full disk encryption) and separated /home partition encryption with no issues than the hassle to type twice a password (one for the whole HDD and another for /home partition). And everything works fine. Hope this clarify it. If you try Partitions setup it will probably go to install BTRFS option. It will send errors when trying to encrypt the HDD or even the /home partition.
