PowerDVD 11 Review Conclusions/Ratings
PowerDVD 11 doesn't make a lot of improvements to the core featureset of PowerDVD 10. DVD and Blu-ray playback, including 3D support, is still as good as ever, although some features seems to have been removed, none of them are considered essential.
Most of the improvements have come in the area of photo support, and smart devices support. Photo support is welcomed and completes PowerDVD's media handling credentials. Smart devices support means there's yet another way to display movies and photos from your device to your PC, but it's an elegant solution and easier to use than even certain device manufacturer's own software. And having the ability to use your phone or tablet as one big PowerDVD remote, complete with mouse pad that also works in other applications, is actually a great addition to any HTPC setup.
And with improved social media integration, namely Facebook photo and video uploads (and downloads), and Flickr photo uploads/downloads, and of course, the very useful integrated YouTube player, these are all meaningful inclusions that make PowerDVD a better player.
