    The majority of ISBoxer users are already using full size windows. The window layouts typically scale them down from the full size, while leaving them rendering at full size. So there will not be a noticeable change in performance from the Window Layout change unless he is rendering the full size of the screen now, where previously a small part of the screen was cut for the other windows.

    Video feed performance is likely to be different for different people, probably with a CPU bottleneck. This question is something that will be answered over time as people tell us about their experience.

    Also, some documentation on the feature: http://isboxer.com/wiki/Video_Feed
    For anyone who wants to try out video feeds, using the in-game interface as explained in that link is going to be the quickest and easiest way to get started (e.g. quickly add a feed showing the minimap in another window, while you play, without having to run ISBoxer, figure out how to set something up, export, etc). The advantage to the method in this thread is additional control and flexibility.

    My thought goes to my laptop which I currently use for some light Wow when I am watching tv and so wondering if it was worth looking at feeds for it. From the sound of it the feeds would kill the laptop cpu which is already getting maxed with the regular window setups.
