Title: AOCLBF (was Phoenix Rising): Phoenix/POCLBM GUI With Built-In Overclock Tool Post by: lvlrdka22 on May 28, 2011, 01:48:58 AM AutoIt OpenCL Bitcoin Foreman Disclaimer: I'm not responsible for turning possessions (yours or otherwise) into paperweights/doorstops! Read everything before asking for help! Need feedback on:
http://i55.tinypic.com/2d6rtar.png Supports Phoenix 1.50 and classic POCLBM 20110709 (and modded ones that use the exact same launch parameters and output). Instructions: Code: Download it, extract it, place the contents in your POCLBM/Phoenix folder (where poclbm.exe/phoenix.exe is located). Run it to configure. Client fields: Code: User ID: your user ID for your worker at a particular mining server. GPU buttons: Code: Refresh: refreshes GPU clock/fan speeds. Main buttons: Code: Run: starts mining. A couple things to note:
Here's a sample of the OSD in action: http://oi56.tinypic.com/rrkv0p.jpg (http://oi56.tinypic.com/rrkv0p.jpg). Bottom right. The GPU statistics is a different script. That should sum it up pretty well. The important parts: Source attached, in case you don't trust the precompiled version (32-bit only now, 64-bit compatibility broken with 1.4, but can still be run in 64-bit environment, just not compiled). Yes, it's completely autoit (except for the POCLBM/Phoenix part, obviously). Current version 1.75: http://www.mediafire.com/?s0b0mo0mbrlyg67. Previous versions
IF you really feel the need to donate, too bad! Oh, and inb4omgitsavirus! History: 1.75 Updated with newest classic POCLBM syntax and parsing of newest output. The only clients supported are the ones that use same command line syntax and produces same output as the classic version. Fixed some of the options not loading correctly when adding a new client. 1.74 Updated to parse newest classic POCLBM output. Added an option to type in Device Number manually. 1.74b Made the OSD font non-bold. 1.74a Attempted a better solution at detecting adapter list. Hopefully this works for both people with on-board and dual GPUs. 1.73 Fixed an issue (possibly) with detecting non-existent/on-board GPUs. Let me know if it's still broken. Added some logging. 1.72 Apply-OC-on-startup should work correctly now. Switched from using device ID to OS index, since apparently device ID changes every time restarts happen ::). 1.71 Really added POCLBM parsing this time (1.7c only parsed the Luke-Jr's version that has more output). 1.7 Can now save and apply clocks on startup. 1.7c Added POCLBM parsing. Just place it in folder. If both poclbm.exe and phoenix.exe are in the same folder, it will run POCLBM. Otherwise it will look to see which EXE file is present, and use that. 1.7b Fixed a couple bugs with the GUI. Changed to different method of detecting parent/child processes. 1.7a Added detection of clock/fan-setting errors. Auto-detects OpenCL GPU devices and places them in drop-down menus for Phoenix Device Numbers. Detects Adapter Indices and places them in drop-down menus, for temperature monitoring. Experimentally linked the OpenCL GPU list to the GPUs detected by ADL through OS Indices for each of the GPUs (provided by ADL). The number of OpenCL GPUs must be the same number of GPUs detected by ADL. Renamed Device Number field to OpenCL Device. 1.62 A few GUI changes such as number-only in certain fields, disabled typing in text in drop-downs, passwords in dots, etc. Set the GPU sliders to BIOS max clock plus 200 MHz (for core and memory) and BIOS max VDDC plus 0.2 V. VDDC display is now in mV, rather than V. 1.61 Reads hard limits on each GPU placed by the GPU BIOS. 1.6 Added GPU clock/voltage/fan controllers. OSDs now display temperature if "Pause mining when..." is checked and the GPU number is filled in. The GPU number used in monitoring temperatures is changed to use Adapter Index. 1.51 Fixed an issue with some checkboxes. 1.5 Switched to tabs due to numerous requests. Made Aggression and Worker Size use drop-down-and-select controls. Added a checkbox for VECTORS since apparently quite a few people can't figure out the reason for the drop in hash rate between 1.3 and 1.4. Now kills all orphan (the ones that aren't in the "currently running" list) Phoenix instances. 1.45 Closes all launched phoenix instances on exit. Fixed a potential "bug" with new switch-to-backup method, so that the time in "number of restarts in x time before switching" can only be set to the minimum of (max idle+5 seconds)*number of restarts. The 5 seconds is a grace period for miner to start up. 1.44 Switched from using ping to check if server is online or not to x restarts per y seconds/minutes/hours. Let me know how it works. 1.43 Fixed a few random bugs (don't remember which, but I fixed them!). Save Settings now saves the current position of the OSDs (I thought it did with 1.42 already ???). Fixed the active window bug thing. 1.42 Fixed (not sure) a bug with spamming the Click Through button. Save Settings now saves the current position of the OSDs. 1.41 Fixed a bug that wasn't letting phoenix running (what's the point of adding a feature if it doesn't get implemented?). 1.4 Added an option to pick a random core to run on. Temperature control, as in setting it to stop when exceeding a certain temperature, and running again when below a certain temperature. Kills phoenix process directly instead of ctrl+break the CMD window (let me know if there are any side effects to killing the process, or if the hang bug still occurs). Broke 64-bit compatibility when I added DLL usage and process killing function, so only 32-bit binary from now on. 1.31 Added startup option. Fixed a bug that wasn't loading OSD font color from INI file correctly. Fixed a potential issue with two kernel-loading arguments. Removed VECTORS argument from the must-load arguments list. Add it to Extra Flags if you want to use it. 1.3 Adding ability to set a backup server in case current goes down (still need ideas on how to detect if a server is down). Replaced "worker size" field with "extra flags." Added field to choose a preset OSD color. Fixed an issue with fastloop, should work correctly now (when disabled). 1.3c Attempted fix of buggy click-throughness of OSD on some computers. 1.3b Fixed an issue with array index out of bounds (stupid me). Added a check for only one core. 1.3a Redid the GUI completely so that it looks neater. Added work size. No longer need to save before adding/removing a miner. 1.23 Fixed an issue with timers. 1.22 Sets affinity of all phoenix instances to one core. 1.21 OSD shows how much time until restart after miner idles for 5 seconds. 1.2 Fixed an OSD-moving bug. Added auto-restart after a set amount of time of idling. 1.1 Initial release. Extras: Finding GPU Number. I think this is specific enough. Let me know if it's still confusing. Also, let me know if temperature readings are off. Post-1.7: should be automatic. If it selects a different card's temperature sensor, follow instructions below, and let me know that it doesn't work. Post-1.6: Code: Go into the tabs for controlling GPU settings. It should list Adapter Index for each of the GPUs. Code: Launch Device Finder.exe.

Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: um0rion on May 28, 2011, 03:49:52 AM Just gave it a shot, looks like it sets up right, but the OSD doesnt work for me. The program looks like it is running, but Ive got no way to tell. Im running a single Sapphire 5850 Xtreme on Windows Vista 64. It might just be something with vista... Id love to get this working if it gives me a better hashrate than guiminer.

Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: lvlrdka22 on May 28, 2011, 07:15:12 AM What's the common way of mining on multiple GPUs? Fake plugs? As an example for fake plugs, for 2 GPUs, do you just set device number to 1, and it starts mining on GPU #2? If so, should be relatively simple. I can add it so that it automatically restarts after a set amount of time of 0 hash rate.
There probably won't be monitor-switching support though (as in plugging monitor in to a different card to start mining on it). Also, fixed an issue on the OSDs moving by themselves when switching monitors that I'll include when I add the auto restart. Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: lvlrdka22 on May 28, 2011, 06:09:01 PM Got some resistors and tested out how dummy plug works.
Updated with the OSD-moving fix, and with restart-on-idle. Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: lvlrdka22 on May 29, 2011, 01:14:38 AM Bump.
Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: Kingfihserb90 on May 29, 2011, 02:56:27 AM So when I get this going I get the phoenix miner box flashing saying:

Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: PoulGrym on May 29, 2011, 03:10:59 AM Haven't tried this yet, but wanted to see if the starting video that uses GPU still hangs the comp?

Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: lvlrdka22 on May 29, 2011, 03:38:40 AM So when I get this going I get the phoenix miner box flashing saying: Try this: http://www.mediafire.com/?v199npcn1jnocntClient #1:0 Restarting, please wait. Then the black command line box flashes the screen repeatedly. Anyone able to tell me what I am doing wrong? I was getting them a little before, I thought I fixed it. Also, make sure your idle time is not set too low, like 5 seconds. It takes a few seconds for the miner to connect to the server to start mining, which is counted as idle time. Haven't tried this yet, but wanted to see if the starting video that uses GPU still hangs the comp? If not is it possible for the GUI to detect this and not hang the comp ;P that would be a great future to add! It's an issue with drivers/phoenix I think.

Any preferences to start at 0 or 1, for the first core? I'll have it start at 0 for now, since both Task Manager and Process Explorer start there. Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: Kingfihserb90 on May 29, 2011, 04:26:04 AM Well I got the miner going with 3 of my 4 cards, but when I enable my 4th card using "screen resolution" in windows.
Note catalyst can see the card as can device manager I get the following error: Problem signature: Problem Event Name: APPCRASH Application Name: phoenix.exe Application Version: 0.0.0.0 Application Timestamp: 4918019b Fault Module Name: StackHash_0a9e Fault Module Version: 0.0.0.0 Fault Module Timestamp: 00000000 Exception Code: c0000005 Exception Offset: 72747369 OS Version: 6.1.7600.2.0.0.768.3 Locale ID: 1033 Additional Information 1: 0a9e Additional Information 2: 0a9e372d3b4ad19135b953a78882e789 Additional Information 3: 0a9e Additional Information 4: 0a9e372d3b4ad19135b953a78882e789 Kingfisherb90 on aim isaac.mooers@gmail.com on gmail Will pay 1 btc to solve this error Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: Kingfihserb90 on May 29, 2011, 04:42:51 AM Also how do I move the OSD # windows so they arent all on top of each other or to another part of the screen?
When I click the Click Through OSD. it doesn't toggle through them or let me drag them am I doing something wrong? Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: lvlrdka22 on May 29, 2011, 05:26:01 AM Click and drag them. The last window created (last client running) is set on top, and gets dragged first, then the one below it, then the one below that, etc.
If that doesn't work, click the Click Through button, and repeat the process. That button toggles the click-throughness of the OSDs, as in, click it, you can click on the OSDs, click again, clicking on OSDs translate to the window below it. Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: huayra.agera on May 29, 2011, 05:51:13 AM Hi! I tried your GUI Miner and the only thing I can't seem to get working is the CliCk through OSD. When I click that nothing shows up. And btw, my card is running but only at 80%. I have a 6850 which runs perfectly with the Phoenix Miner @ 263 Mhash/sec @1000/300 1.155v. Maybe you could check? Thanks!
Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: lvlrdka22 on May 29, 2011, 07:11:17 AM It should automatically pop up when you hit the Run button, one OSD for each client.
If you've never moved them, they should be on the top left of the screen. Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: Kingfihserb90 on May 29, 2011, 07:15:19 AM It should automatically pop up when you hit the Run button, one OSD for each client. If you've never moved them, they should be on the top left of the screen. Yup, but as many times as I click the click through button it always lets me click through and not drag. I am hitting the click through button and dragging the icon underneath each time rather then the OSD window. Also any idea about why the miner crashes when I enable my 4th card?

"AutoIt Error Line 4946 (...PR 1.22.exe): Error: Array variable has incorrect number of subscripts or subscript dimension range exceeded." Win7 x64, 2 5850s non-CFX w/dummy plug, ran as admin, using phoenix 1.48 and phatk (disabling phatk kernal [which is installed] does nothing helpful), Catalyst 11.5, trying to use btcmine.com. Same error when starting either card after switching all options on or off. It does successfully start up an instance of Phoenix (which becomes hidden -- there is no OSD popup), but only uses 73-75% GPU resources with aggression @ 12. Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: lvlrdka22 on May 29, 2011, 09:48:18 AM I'm guessing it's because I didn't add a delay between execution of phoenix.exe and setting its affinity.
Try this: http://www.mediafire.com/?wb8a1df8mf0i6a0 If that doesn't work and you don't mind, install autoit with SciTE. Open the source with it (the .au3 file), hit F5. The client should run. Then start mining. It will show correctly where the error is occurring. Off to sleep.

Is it possible to use this tool set up a backup pool? That is to say run your cards to mine for pool A, but if pool A goes down to switch to pool B until pool A goes back up? Yeah, if you want to run a back up pool, just set it to lower aggression than the primary pool, and it should work as usual. That's the solution for now.It would be great to have a field to set worksize I can add that after I get back.Anyways, anyone got any ideas on how to detect if a pool is down? I want to exclude the possibility of internet going down. Well, pinging and telnet don't work, at least on BTC Guild.

ill play with the settings some more today. Btw, what about 'VECTORS' and other switches?

Any chance u'd do similar tool for poclbm? Also any chance to ability to display Hashrate as OSD (consumes much CPU on higher aggression for me) or somewhere in GUI window? EDIT: Maybe just instead of restarting miner it should close current one and start backup one if available ( or checkbox whenever switch if idle or restart). Then after specified time return to check if its working. Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: kynalvarus on May 31, 2011, 12:15:17 AM I've been trying out the 1.3a beta. It's about 3% slower on my Radeon HD 6870 with the same settings than running phoenix directly, but I'm not sure why. Also, it seems to go to sleep when my PC is running the screen saver. My reported hashrate from the server drops way down, and when I come back from screensaver the OSD reads "Restarting...". It's possible that the underlying phoenix bug is biting me. Perhaps the GUI doesn't properly detect idleness when the screensaver is running?
Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: lvlrdka22 on May 31, 2011, 12:50:41 AM Try 1.3b, I fixed a couple unintended bugs.
If you're using multiple graphics cards, it could be setting affinity all to the same core (if you used that), which could result in a little loss of performance. Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: bcpokey on May 31, 2011, 02:29:05 AM Trying out the client now, so far I like it, the affinity setting is something I really like, and the backup option was just what I was looking for. One thing though is the OSD is always click-through for me no matter if I hit the button or try to alt-tab to the window or anything. I saw someone else had this problem but I didn't see any resolution, has anyone come up with anything for this?
Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: lvlrdka22 on May 31, 2011, 03:23:13 AM Try this, see if it's fixed: http://www.mediafire.com/?3oup7h2d6dtenbq
Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: huayra.agera on May 31, 2011, 03:25:31 AM Finally I was able to show the OSD, it was on the upper left corner of the desktop and I just moved it before clicking "Click Through" to lock it's position. So far working good! Thanks for this GUI! The restart option is very handy indeed! I will be testing it with a dual card system. Have just tested it with a single card. I get the same Mhash/sec with the console version. :)
P.S. Would there be a way to change the font color to like Green or White or Black or something? The red font is kind of hard to view ;). I know I may be asking too much but it would greatly help. Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: Kingfihserb90 on May 31, 2011, 03:36:17 AM Hm, what OS are you using? The crash doesn't seem related to the GUI at all, can't help there. I am using windows 7 64 bit, with SP I have 3 dummy plugged cards into x1 slots, crossfire connected. I have tried 11.3 11.4 and 11.5 catalyst. Speaking of catalyst my crossfire option has disappeared from the performance menu. Windows 7 sees the 4th card as does catalyst when I "extend the desktop" if I don't do that neither can see the card. However when I try to run guimier.exe or a 4th miner in phoenix rising I get that crash. I also get the crash when i run poclbm.py in command line and I have the 4rd card extended. I will pay a bounty to whoever figures out how to make my 4th card usable. Kingfisherb90 on aim isaac.mooers@gmail.com for ghat email.

Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: Aprogas on May 31, 2011, 12:52:20 PM It seems phoenix.exe is launched with incorrect parameters (i.e. lacking a space) when fastloop is disabled.

phoenix -u http://user:pass@bitcoinpool.com:8332 -k poclbm VECTORS BFI_INT FASTLOOP=falseAGGRESSION=7 DEVICE=0 WORKSIZE=512 -q 2 This probably causes both the fastloop and aggression settings to not be parsed.

Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: lvlrdka22 on June 01, 2011, 06:17:14 AM Heh, it does!
There's a field for that ;). It checks every time timer reaches that length, and every time backup client restarts. I tested by unplugging my LAN cable, then plugging it back in. Should work, provided ping is good enough to tell if a server is online or not. Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: huayra.agera on June 01, 2011, 06:20:36 AM Ha!

I love how easy it is to lock the processes to a core. +1. I have the problem where miners insist on taking up 100% of a core and can't seem to fix it with driver upgrades/downgrades, producing unnecessary heat and consuming costly electricity, so (after downclocking/downvolting the CPU via BIOS) being able to just start them off on one core instead of starting task manager and manually switching affinity of both programs saves me a lot of time.After autostart feature is added, I just need to figure out a way to auto-restart my miners when the graphics drivers fail and can't restart. Ambient temperature varies up to 40*F day-to-day which causes hassles trying to volt/clock my GPUs as high as possible without crashing.

i've running the phoenix rising and watched into the processlist and the miner is started like this: phoenix -u http://user:password@host:8337 -k poclbm VECTORS BFI_INT FASTLOOP=false AGGRESSION=12 DEVICE=0 -k phatk why are there 2 kernels given? There should be only one kernel i think. Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: lvlrdka22 on June 03, 2011, 07:40:43 PM Unintended, but apparently loads phatk kernel correctly anyways. I'll add that to 1.31.
Oh, and removed VECTORS from the must-load argument list. If you want to use it, just add that to Extra Flags field. Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: lvlrdka22 on June 03, 2011, 08:09:28 PM 1.31 up!

I removed vectors from the must-load argument list, so you'll have to add that in Extra Flags.Hm. 1.32: I have added an extra option under Affinity to pick a random core to use (that still makes every instance run on the same core, except it's randomized, as in, once every client stops, it repicks a core to run on). Thinking about an AMD/ATI GPU monitor (can't figure out how to use ADL dll, so using a different one) that stops client once temperature reaches a certain point, and starts client again once it drops below a certain point.

Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: Kluge on June 05, 2011, 09:08:51 AM Maybe not worth your time, but it would be nice to have an "export" feature where it writes up a .txt file giving the full line going to the cmd window when running Phoenix for debugging purposes.
I'm having trouble getting Phoenix to run using PR on a particular computer I'm running and can't figure out why. Since all I get is a blank command window and "xx seconds idle | xx seconds until restart" I'm having difficulty debugging it myself because I don't know exactly what Phoenix is being fed. Edit: Found my problem -- I didn't capitalize a particular letter in password field :x Edit2: And I'm using the 32-bit client :p Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: lvlrdka22 on June 05, 2011, 09:35:28 AM I can do that. Try this: http://www.mediafire.com/?d2wtoj47ufcgzwv
Oh, still need people to test out that separate script I wrote. Need to see if Device Number directly corresponds to which GPUs are in the top slots, as in, if Device 0 is the one in first slot, Device 1 the GPU in the next-filled slot, etc. Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: MaSell on June 05, 2011, 11:14:46 AM Any chance to hide OSD?
Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: Chef on June 05, 2011, 01:59:24 PM Just a quick bug report:
The backup pool feature seems to work nicely on 1.3 and 1.31. The get back to primary-pool feature however does not. I waited for over an hour now (it's set to 2 minutes), but i had to restart the worker to get it back to the original pool. Anyways, thanks for the tool, it helps my uptime quite a lot! Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: dishwara on June 05, 2011, 03:05:20 PM EXCELLENT
Nice GUI, only thing needed is tabbed interface. I directly tried with 1.32, just for the past 30 minutes, giving correct values & its running with out me for past 5 minutes. I see shadow behind OSD, causing letters to look double, instead of sharp, even after trying clear type in windows, that i can say bug now. Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: lvlrdka22 on June 05, 2011, 04:32:54 PM I need some feedback on how well my temperature monitor is working (AMD/ATI GPUs only). http://www.mediafire.com/?oyd7tj6ezvebaiz Does it list both the slot the GPUs are plugged in and the temperature correctly? Also, is Device 0 the one in first slot, Device 1 the GPU in the next-filled slot, etc.? What I mean is, for example, I'm using slot 0 and 3, and Device 0 is the one in slot 0, Device 1 is the one in slot 3. Is the Device Number always incremented like that? Tested in 3 rigs: 1x 6990 - ok - 2 devices detected - Device 0 and 1 worked properly; 1x 5970 - just onde device detected - Device 0 2x 5970 - just 2 devices detected - Device 0 and 3 http://www.mediafire.com/?6fwbxckivpohml2 Just a quick bug report: It tries to tell using ping. If main server isn't pingable and is idling, it switches to backup until the primary becomes pingable again.The backup pool feature seems to work nicely on 1.3 and 1.31.

Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: dikidera on June 05, 2011, 06:41:45 PM So what are the good and bad parts about this program?
+GUI -An OSD that stays in the top right corner of my screen without the ability to move it. -The OSD stays on top of EVERY program. -The OSD has barely visible words(impossible to read the text at all) -Small fields when entering arguments -Checkbox for phatk, but not for vectors and BFI_INT Basically, although i appreciate the try, you should've tried harder.

That's exactly what OSD means. You can change colors of the text. What? Vectors, put in to Extra Fields, it's in the instructions. BFI_INT=5xxx+.

Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: dikidera on June 05, 2011, 06:53:56 PM Then make the fields bigger lol. I am not some ant to try and read that. Also, why write 5Xxx+?? Just write BFI_INT so there are no misunderstandings then.
And also, if it stays on top of every program(the osd) then how the hell can i watch a movie without that thing??

Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: dishwara on June 05, 2011, 06:59:48 PM The OSD position can't be saved. Restart of phoenix rising causes OSD go back to top left corner & also OSD gets messed by displaying each card details in same place. I have 3 cards mining & all 3 at same place.
I also found a problem in version 1.32. It just says restarting after phoenix crash in a cmd window but can't able to restart. only way to restart, is to close that window manually & it automatically restarts miner then. This problem is not with 1.31. In 1.31, it displays restarting & restarts in less than 10-20 seconds. OSD overlapping & not saving last position is in both 1.31 & 1.32 Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: FRanz33 on June 05, 2011, 07:02:21 PM Its been a bug since the very first version. only hiccup about the miner other than that it would be flawlessly functional...the asthetics (osd text size)..who cares just need it to mine without me hovering over it
Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: Peao on June 05, 2011, 07:08:54 PM Im noticing a bug where the miner doesnt always restart. it Just hangs with a blank command line window open and its stay hung until i close the window the the miner restarts. any body else seen this? i tested on 10 machines and 8 had the bug with in 8 hrs Same here.

Perhaps one measure is enough, because the card is the same and there is no big difference between the temperature of the two processors of a 5970 ... Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: lvlrdka22 on June 05, 2011, 09:03:16 PM Quote Bleh. By the way, does the 5970 happen to only show 1 temperature for both cores? The 6990 shows 2 temperatures, 1 per core, right? 5970 - 1 temp. But I do not know if it is the average of the two cores or it's the temperature of just one core. 6990 - yes - 2 temps, 1 per core. I do not know, but is it essential to your plans to have the temperature information of the two GPUs? There should be though, if you mine on 1 core and play games/idle on another, which is what I'm trying to avoid :-[ (mining on one core with a preset shutdown temperature, but the monitor reads temperature for the "idle" core).Perhaps one measure is enough, because the card is the same and there is no big difference between the temperature of the two processors of a 5970 ... Does this list two temperatures for the 5970? http://www.mediafire.com/?2rdbd97anpia8iw Ignore the 10 devices thing, I'm having it list everything. If not, I give up for now and probably will just throw a hacky fix that forces people to find out which "slot" each of the devices are on. Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: dishwara on June 05, 2011, 09:13:52 PM Afterburner i am using to read temp now.
The order of device number is also different.

GPU1 temp in Afterburner = Device 6 temp GPU2 temp in Afterburner = Device 0 temp GPU3 temp in Afterburner = Device 3 temp Still the same results in both rigs... :( If you don't mind, can you mine on one core and have the other core sitting idle for the 5970, and monitor temperatures using Afterburner or GPUZ (open 2 instances of it, the drop down menu on the bottom left should list 2 5900 series, one for each core)? Do they show different temperatures?1x5970 just device 0 2x5970 devices 0 and 3 Because of dishwara, I think I'll have to have the user figure out which device is which GPU with an external script :'(. By the way, did this fix the restart bug?

But I saw that appear different temperatures for each core (about 2 Celsius), and "Device Finder" catch one of them. Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: lvlrdka22 on June 05, 2011, 10:19:15 PM I suppose that'll be enough as a temporary solution :-\.
Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: FRanz33 on June 06, 2011, 12:10:55 AM Nope it didnt. tried it on two machines with two 6970's in each. just checked one box was going the other hung up
EDIT: if your having trouble reproducing the bug just hit stop on the console and alot of time the box will pop up and sometimes itll just stay there and hang. its something to do with how phoenix process is shut down Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: lvlrdka22 on June 06, 2011, 12:39:49 AM Hm, try this (temperature monitor is still not implemented yet, ignore it for now): http://www.mediafire.com/?u1tmtamjekr8b9a
DO NOT USE THE 64-BIT. It doesn't kill phoenix processes correctly. Switched from using ctrl+break to directly killing the process. Should not have the hanging bug anymore. Let me know if there are any side effects. Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: FRanz33 on June 06, 2011, 12:43:16 AM OK will try. ur pretty quick on this man
Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: FRanz33 on June 06, 2011, 12:56:21 AM ooo yea that kill is much cleaner than the last version...lets see how it does overnight
Edit: nope. Now when i hit the stop button it doesn't kill the process it just run in background. I dont know if it affects the auto restart but the manual stop and start is botched now. i have to go into task man. to kill it myself Editx2: i can now confirm even on restart the process doent kill at all.. ever 30 sec another phoenix instance and piles up until computer crashes. take this version down asap Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: FRanz33 on June 06, 2011, 01:13:35 AM Maybe theres away to just kill phoenix then kill the window that pops up automatically?
Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: lvlrdka22 on June 06, 2011, 01:21:02 AM NEVERMIND, apparently the new kill process function I stole has broken compatibility with 64-bit.
From now on, only 32-bit binaries :'(. Besides, AMD's DLLs for monitoring GPU temperature is 32-bit. If the hang is finally fixed, I might be able to get temperature monitoring up (but that requires a bit of extra work on the user side, to figure out which devices are which).

I killed one phoenix.exe in task manager & it was restarted correctly, but with 4-5 retries of showing cmd windows restarting. I did it only one time, so not sure. Besides, yesterday night, i got strange problem. I used 1.32 which u gave before, i never used your GUI, actually i was not aware a GUI for phoenix with phatk exists. 1.32 gave restart hang. So, i tried with 1.31 & at the same time i updated windows 7 32 bit to sp1. After installing sp1, even 1.31 gave hang problem. So i uninstalled sp1 & then 1.31 worked fine by correctly restarting. I think the new sp1 interfering with PR. So, ask others also to uninstall sp1, if they have upgraded to sp1 & try with 1.32 EDIT: Just know one miner crashed itself & after 4-5 restarts it restarted. But it seems miner crashes itself with new version. Within 10 minutes, 2 miners crashed. So going back to 1.31 as my SH won't happy if i mine less.

It does nothing. It says it starts miners by showing cmd windows & closing, but NO PHONEIX.EXE runs in task manager & no OSD & NO MINING AT ALL.
It shows everything as mining , but without mining actually. Check it. Again going back to 1.31 Please, add tabbed interface SOOOOOOOOON. With 6 clients, i actually can't able to see last client, due to now added pause, temp.... Only way to see, is to delete last 3 clients which i don't use now from phoenix.ini after taking backup of phoenix.ini. Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: lvlrdka22 on June 06, 2011, 08:18:01 AM Eh, don't know what to say. I didn't change the launch function at all, and the OSD even shows up on my XP 32-bit laptop with only integrated (along with phoenix, which exits as soon as it launches since it couldn't find a GPU to run on).
I just downloaded from the link to test, works... Try opening pr.log and check that the launch parameters are correct? Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: dishwara on June 06, 2011, 09:27:06 AM Tried again downloading 1.4. Same error, no mining.
Also the pr.log shows everything correctly. I don't know why not mining at all. hope some one will try & reply. Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: lvlrdka22 on June 06, 2011, 10:11:15 AM Hm, if you have Process Explorer, mind opening that up, run PR, scroll down so that PR is visible in Process Explorer, and hit run?
Try to see if phoenix is created as a child process (should be a tree under PR.exe). It may disappear quickly, so as soon as you hit run, look on Process Explorer. Also, try this: http://www.mediafire.com/?3qhx6ke2lpx0g29 All the that changed between the launching process in 1.31 and 1.4 is that I added logging (which I removed in this).

It's been a while since I've started using PR! Just having issues with my ISP's IP addresses being banned from the forum, I had to use proxy servers just to read threads here. =)
I think we should have a feature request, would that be asking a lot? =) The whole idea is that the only thing that we'll launch is you're GUI. Here's the list: 1. Temperature display (VRM, Core, Memory) OSD (since you were already able to tap into the temp control) -addendum: Clock throttling to a certain profile when a temp is reached like for example, at night temps are cold, we could OC to like 911/300 5850 stock volts, but during daytime noontime when temps reach like 85-90C on core, it would throttle down to like 860/300. 2. Overclocking tool (like set the clocks at start/when the Run button is pressed) 3. Fan Speed display 4. GPU Core, Memory, VRM Clocks display 5. Maybe the Withdraw button for pools that support it (Same as with GUIminer) 6. Maybe the Miner Stats reporting (like the Widget) where in we enter the API Json from the pool and we get stats like current exchange rate, pool has rate, miner hash rate, BTC earned, workers, etc. I would say a lot of us here is going to support you (donations, mine at you're suggested pools, bounty etc.) We couldn't be even more thankful for all your work. =) I would happily beta test your app!

Most of the things u asked already in Afterburner. Adding all these things to MINER will make it BLOAT-WARE & can cause severe performance decrease & mining efficiency. Also, Its always good to use more than one tool, which will give space to work easily. Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: huayra.agera on June 06, 2011, 02:10:14 PM It's pretty obvious all my feature request are already in afterburner, but my suggestion was that it would be very efficient if we only launch 1 program to monitor, OC, run the miners, etc. I think they wouldn't be too much bloatware either as they are all useful. How I wish I know how to code but ideas are the least I can contribute. And testing =).

But after trying 1.32 & 1.4 & 1.4 a, now even 1.31 crashes every 20-30 minutes. Also, crash makes program to hang showing restarting cmd window.

Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: lvlrdka22 on June 06, 2011, 06:19:31 PM Hi! It's been a while since I've started using PR! Just having issues with my ISP's IP addresses being banned from the forum, I had to use proxy servers just to read threads here. =) Eh, only temperature reading is available in the ATI-provided DLL I'm using, can't get ADL working.I think we should have a feature request, would that be asking a lot? =) The whole idea is that the only thing that we'll launch is you're GUI. Here's the list: 1. Temperature display (VRM, Core, Memory) OSD (since you were already able to tap into the temp control) -addendum: Clock throttling to a certain profile when a temp is reached like for example, at night temps are cold, we could OC to like 911/300 5850 stock volts, but during daytime noontime when temps reach like 85-90C on core, it would throttle down to like 860/300. 2. Overclocking tool (like set the clocks at start/when the Run button is pressed) 3. Fan Speed display 4. GPU Core, Memory, VRM Clocks display 5. Maybe the Withdraw button for pools that support it (Same as with GUIminer) 6. Maybe the Miner Stats reporting (like the Widget) where in we enter the API Json from the pool and we get stats like current exchange rate, pool has rate, miner hash rate, BTC earned, workers, etc. I would say a lot of us here is going to support you (donations, mine at you're suggested pools, bounty etc.) We couldn't be even more thankful for all your work. =) I would happily beta test your app! I do have an external script that displays all current GPU statistics through GPUZ, but I would rather not release that (argh, need ADL working!). Overclock tool, I've been thinking about it. Should be relatively simple, as long as I can get ADL working ::). Most likely no on the Withdraw, since I don't want to ever be accused of stealing/changing bitcoin address :-\ (it'll need complete website log in to withdraw). I was thinking about using JSON to detect if pool is down, but not too familiar with it. This is great. But without fail it crashes my entire desktop after about 10-15 minutes. This seems familiar. I think there might have been a bug with Catalyst 11.4 and the SDK that came with that, because it would blue screen if I ended phoenix process instead of ctrl+break.I have a 5830 running 2.4 SDK @ around 85C. I've tried both the phatk and poclbm kernels, and they both crash. Independently running phoenix with the same args I have no problems, so I'm not sure what the issue is. Using 11.4? So will 64bit binaries return in future versions past 1.4 or has that ship sailed? Yeah, no more 64-bit, since the DLLs are 32-bit :-\.I prefer to use 64bit apps, though I know there really isn't any kind of performance gain in this small of a program it still is a peeve of mine. One of the functions I'm using to kill phoenix processes is also 32-bit only apparently. For those people that 1.4 refuses to work, try this: http://www.mediafire.com/?qgz988s9ojx7j4n I copy-pasted the entire phoenix-launching function from 1.4 over. See if this works. Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: LegitBit on June 06, 2011, 06:22:14 PM 1.4 Fails to launch the GUI on WIn7 x64 SP1
Weird. Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: dishwara on June 06, 2011, 06:25:38 PM I think the problem may be due to saving the settings & working in read only mode.
Since it is read only mode, new features may not be able to save & giving problem. Have to test with NO read only. Also, i now removed read only , added a client, removed a client & saved settings again with 1.31, hoping new save will make 1.31 work with out crash. Also, now running with NO read only. Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: Internet151 on June 06, 2011, 06:30:36 PM It would be nice if Phoenix Rising could show some more statistics, like how many times it's gotten work queue is empty from x pool, how many times it's been disconnected and reconnected from x pool, etc.

Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: mosimo on June 07, 2011, 08:58:52 AM Nice program, the only gripe I have atm is the OSD overlapping. I know I can click the "click through" button to make them movable, but when I do this the OSD goes to a solid colour, lets me move it and no matter how many times I press the click through button again it never actually gets any text or transparency back.
I've not looked into that at all, I'm at work and a bit busy atm. But I did edit the client so it offsets the clients down the side of the screen and adds a 5px gap between them. Changed line 715 from: Code: $osd[$i]=guicreate("OSD #" & $i+1,200,64,0,0,-1,bitor($ws_ex_topmost,$ws_ex_layered,$ws_ex_toolwindow),$hidden) To: Code: $osd[$i]=guicreate("OSD #" & $i+1,200,64,0, + $i * 90,-1,bitor($ws_ex_topmost,$ws_ex_layered,$ws_ex_toolwindow),$hidden) Source + binary here: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=AXN0MYRP http://www.mediafire.com/?qfau02x6fc8qa2c Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: Internet151 on June 07, 2011, 09:03:59 AM Moving the GUI box seems to be unusually difficult if using the Windows 7 Basic Theme.

In my rig 2x5970, for example, the hashrate of two GPUs are constant at 388. But the other two are ranging between 340 and 370. Do not understand why this is happening... If I run the phoenix from the command line, all four GPUs running steady at 388. Any ideas? ??? UPDATE: This problem happens only in cards with two GPUs (5970 and 6990). In version 1.3 this did not happen. If I start mining in only one of GPUs, the hashrate is normal. When I start the second GPU, the problem starts.

Those are the only cases that could cause it to keep restarting.If i set Restart after an idle time, then the miner keeps on restarting only. The only way to mine is make restarting to 0 or disabled. Win 7, 64 bit. Any other face same problem with PR 1.42 ? Am I blind? I can't find the source code anywhere. Hm, there are only 3 types of files included, .exe, .au3, and .png.

Two things: — There are some moments when OSD is constantly blinking almost every second (no matter is click-through on or off), which is kinda annoying. Didn't figure out what causes this. Windows 7, aero disabled. — I'm sure you know that device finder doesn't really show the correct device numbers :) And minor things: — It would be good if password was stored like this: "*************". — Maybe would be also good to let the user to hide OSD when he needs to.

Manually adding VECTOR into the "other flag" field brought hashrate back up to its original levels. If you could have it automatically add that flag in the next version that'd be great.

So, if it's share acceptance rate and not network reachability, how do you decide when to switch back to the primary pool? Perhaps in that scenario of handling failover, you would be able to set a time until the primary is tried again (similar to the current setting), and a configurable period of time during which the primary must accept a share or it goes back to the secondary. You know what I'd really really love more than anything else for this program? A simple button to force a client to switch from primary to backup or backup to primary. Right now, I do it by swapping ini files. The other thing I would love would be if the program remembered where your OSDs live. Having to reposition them every time is frustrating.

If anyone's feeling like being guinea pigs, run that from command line, and let me know the output, along with how many GPUs you are running (and which GPU # printed from the program corresponds with which GPU number in mining, if you happen to know them or wouldn't mind trying to figure it out). Single GPUs should work fine, but not sure about duals (5970/6990). Right now, just retrieves clock and temperature info, but it's not too hard to make it an OC tool. If it's reading GPU info correctly, that is.

Temperatures are not the same as msi afterburner (or rivatuner) is showing. It shows higher values, 74 & 68 respectively. Obviously it uses another gpu sensor. Guess it'd be the right choice for you to use these sensors too :) Device numbers are not the right numbers (that are used in settings of your program), they should be 0 and 1, not 0 and 3 Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: lvlrdka22 on June 13, 2011, 09:23:13 AM The temperatures should be the core temperatures, at least they are for my 5850s.
And yeah, still not sure how device numbers are calculated. These numbers are assigned by the driver itself. Does it at least report correct clock speeds and correct number of GPUs (counting 5970/6990 as 2)? Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: 5tr1k3r on June 13, 2011, 01:39:17 PM Damn, deepbit's down again. I definitely vote for this solution: switch to backup after two-three (or more) periods of idling. For example, if I have "Restart after an idle time of 30 seconds" option, switching will be executed after 1+ minutes of idle time.
If you don't like the idea, then I definitely vote for button that forces a client to switch from primary to backup or backup to primary, it was mentioned before by smackdaddy. That's just too sad to lose 10 minutes of mining when you can lose only one :) Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: dishwara on June 13, 2011, 03:02:41 PM I want the option to switch back to the back up MANUALLY also.
Today slush pool was in attack & miner can't able to connect. I already gave deepbit as backup. It doesn't even switch to deepbit, instead keep on restarting in slush server only.

Now uses x restarts per y time to check. It can potentially result in a little longer down time compared to a method that immediately tells if server is down or not, but is a much better indicator than pinging.
Oh, and if you were checking if main server is up every minute or so, it's now probably a better idea to make that interval longer, like at least 15 minutes.

I didn't happen to test the new feature, because pool was never down since the beginning of testing. Kind of can't get the whole logic of this: what happens if I have options "Restart after an idle time of 30 seconds" and "If 2 restarts occur in 20 seconds then switch to backup"? Will it ever switch? :) Seems to me like second time is pretty much unnecessary. Anyway, good job, thanks. By the way, is it possible to kill all phoenixes when quiting?

Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: huayra.agera on June 17, 2011, 07:45:06 AM http://i55.tinypic.com/64p839.png Current version 1.61: http://www.mediafire.com/?6tx6wewldrdr5p4 IF you really feel the need to donate, switch pool to BTC Guild or Eligius (if you aren't there already)! History: 1.61 Reads hard limits on each GPU placed by the GPU BIOS. 1.6 Added GPU clock/voltage/fan controllers. OSDs now display temperature if "Pause mining when..." is checked and the GPU number is filled in. The GPU number used in monitoring temperatures is changed to use Adapter Index. Finally! I am a happy camper! Are you sure mining @ BTCGuild or Eligius is the only barter you'd like for your work? I bet many of us here are willing to donate some coins. :) Oh, is the Temperature checkbox working now? With 1.5 I was not able to edit the temp values. Thanks again for heading my requests! Arguably the best GUI Miner out there. EDIT: It's working now and the temperature OSD is great. However, it seems it is just reading the temp of 1 GPU for both (Crossfired Rig). The OC clocks seem to limit to just 775 GPU Core from 725, I read here, you followed the lock or something. I hope you can like put a checkbox to lock/unlock for more overclocking headroom.

Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: 5tr1k3r on June 17, 2011, 05:46:51 PM I guess would be cool to draw some mhash/s chart somewhere in the main window (additional tab maybe), to monitor performance and stuff like pool uptime. I haven't seen this in any miner I used.
Actually, afterburner's gpu temperature monitor works fine, but it would be more cool like this :) Also I suggest to change textboxes type such way, so after clicking in there I don't need to erase all the words like "Device name" or "Pool's name" or whatever. The text remains there, but after clicking on textbox it disappears allowing me to write something. Just a minor thing though. Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: klaaster on June 17, 2011, 06:00:15 PM Very nice Program, thanks for that!
I'm mining since last week on Eligius, now even better if the server gets some hiccup. :) Would be nice to have some script with a backup server like this for ubuntu through ssh, hmm, time to search the forum and write my own. i am off ;) Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: 5tr1k3r on June 17, 2011, 06:09:51 PM http://up.idiaths.ru/?id=a1659025fb0fe858
Temperatures seem to be wrong, hm. I'll explain a little: as you can see, I have 2 graphic cards, 5770 and 5850. Their adapter indexes are 3 and 0 respectively. But in order to get them working I have to choose 1 as a device name for 5770 and 0 for 5850. When I put 1 and 0 in "Pause mining ..." I get pretty much the same temperatures (as you can also see), which can't be true. I tried 3 for 5770, it shows some 64, while it's supposed to be hotter than 5850. But for 5850 it works good, because it shows same values as msi afterburner (it's down there, in the tray). Maybe it's just a coincidence. Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: 5tr1k3r on June 17, 2011, 06:23:48 PM And another minor thing. It's better not to write "at ?°C" at all, when "Pause mining ..." is unchecked.
Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: lvlrdka22 on June 17, 2011, 08:21:47 PM 1.62. A few GUI changes. Clock speeds can now be set to BIOS limit plus 200 MHz, and VDDC max is BIOS limit plus 200 mV. If you can't set it higher, it probably means you've hit the limit.
Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: PoulGrym on June 17, 2011, 09:57:19 PM Nice GUI. Just thought I'd say that I had an issue with backup server because of a typo of ":" semicolon. Good idea could be to make error box pop up if address fields have strange symbols in them. Took me a little while to figure it out as it was the first symbol in the field so I didn't see it.

I have a suggestion regarding the fan control, just like in MSI Afterburner and Trixx, they have custom profiles wherein if the Temp goes up, fan speed goes up as well, and vice versa. Maybe you can pattern that custom profile to PR 1.63. :) Thanks! Oh, and OSD for GPU Core, Memory, Volts, and VRM Temps would be great, too! Regarding the temperature, it seems it's only reading the 2nd GPU's temperature and displaying as one (for multiple GPU config).

I was going to say, if you want a custom fan control, just use Afterburner or whatever. I'm too lazy to add that. I also really don't want to have the OSDs cluttered with stuff, so what you see there will probably be the only stats I'll add. Eh, trying to figure out how OpenCL device numbers are ordered (if they are listed the same way ADL lists adapters, but from what I've read, no correlation whatsoever) so maybe we can get one fixed set of numbering system. Right now, got "clGetPlatformIDs" and "clGetPlatformInfo" working correctly I think. "clGetPlatformInfo" returns "Advanced Micro Devices, Inc." I hope that's what it's supposed to return. Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: huayra.agera on June 18, 2011, 07:13:04 AM No problem man! But I guess the temp fix would be great. ;)
Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: lvlrdka22 on June 18, 2011, 09:12:30 AM Might be useful if people with different GPUs models (as in GPUs with first 2 numbers different, such as 5850 and 6990 in the same system) run this and post the stuff in adlocl.log: http://www.mediafire.com/?p9i80it24z879d6
All it does is print out the Device Numbers (and some other misc. information) for OpenCL (I think these numbers are what Phoenix uses) and the information provided by ADL. What I'm interested in is the order OpenCL prints each device out, and the order of Adapter Indices, OS Display Indices, and Bus Numbers printed from ADL. Neither OpenCL nor ADL print out the full GPU names, unfortunately (Cypress/Radeon 5800 Series, respectively, like those help), so it's most helpful if people with multiple GPUs that have first two model numbers different run this. Side note: OpenCL's get-device-ID/number function isn't useful at all in determining which GPU corresponds to which ::). It changes every time I run it.

Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: dishwara on June 18, 2011, 07:20:48 PM I tired with OC & it works good.
But, it also needs save option as saving mining details. Restart removes all OC info & have to apply again. Also there is no way to apply voltage changes. For clock & fan speed, after moving slider to required Mhz & % clicking clock & fan, changes the clock & fan speed. But for to change voltage, no option is there. I also had a strange problem. 2 nos. of ASUS EAH5870 cards let me OC to anywhere, well i so far only tried 993 & 331 for core & mem. The same i did for Sapphire 5870. But with your software Sapphire refuses to increase core above 900 Mhz & if i go above 900 Mhz, clicking clock brings it back to 900 Mhz, while Asus goes up to 993. All the above cards ran perfectly at 993/331 using Afterburner before. Title: Re: Phoenix Rising: Front End GUI to Phoenix Miner Post by: hollajandro on June 18, 2011, 08:57:23 PM Do you think you could add in the color 0x00FFFFFF for the OSD so it is invisible?

First of all this gui platform helped me a lot regarding handling and the fall back server option. So thanks very much for that. But im having an issue with the overclocking options. I have a HD 5870 wich has 1250mhz memory and 875 mhz core by default. Clocking down the memory to 300 mhz works just fine. But when i try to overclock the core frequency higher than 900 it is not applied and the gui is just reset to the last value below 900 mhz. I hardly doubt im beyond the 200 mhz from BIOS limit.

Quote If the link between OpenCL GPU list and OS Index is correct (if setting an OpenCL Device automatically selects the corresponding GPU correctly) Yes, it works fine, GPU is correctly selected. Though it might be difficult for somebody to remember core codenames.Quote If ADL detects the same number of GPUs as OpenCL (if the OpenCL Device list has same number of GPUs as number of tabs for controlling GPU clocks). Everything's good here too, same amount of tabs. If you're interested, adapter and OS indexes are the same for each card.I made an insight on temperatures monitoring and found out something. I have 5770 and 5850. According to GPU-Z (and some other sources), there are three temp sensors in each card. My sensors values for 5770: 71, 83 and 77. For 5850: 76, 82, 81. Your monitoring seems to show values of the first sensors, which detect the temperature of a display controller. And these are the lowest values of all three. MSI Afterburner has one general graph for each graphic card, they are called simply GPU1 temp and GPU2 temp. GPU-Z also has additional GPU temp graph for general GPU temp monitoring. I was surprised to know that both programs use different sensors to show general graphic card temperatures. It's the second sensor for 5770 and the first sensor for 5850. So temps they are showing are 83 and 76 respectively. Anyway, last paragraph was kinda offtopic. I was just trying to elaborate what sensors are best to use. I propose second ones, they are showing the highest temperatures of the graphic cards. I could finally throw away that afterburner temps from my tray. About drop-down menu after "Pause mining when GPU ..." — I happen to have three options for this: 0, second 0 and 3. Though I have two cards o,o About clocks tab: I didn't quite get why do I have to click "Clock speed" every time I want to apply changes :) Same for "Fan speed". What about "Save settings" concept? I think, "BFI_INT" would be more informative and appropriate than "HD5xxx+". Huh, looks like I'm done for now :D Thanks for impressive work. Update: oh, sorry, forgot to tell the version, it's 1.7c. Title: Re: AOCLBF (was Phoenix Rising): Front End GUI to Phoenix/POCLBM Post by: huayra.agera on June 22, 2011, 07:05:53 AM Hi! Is there a way for you to remove BIOS limit for all three (Core, Memory, Voltage)? Like a checkbox maybe (warning that it will remove BIOS limit may cause damage to card etc.)
I was getting BSOD after a couple of minutes when I OCed using Afterburner and I tweaked my 5850 to 1010/300/1.25v. It seems since AOCLBF is running with the BIOS limit, when I go past that, it will BSOD. When I'm using the traditional command line, I did not have that issue. I was able to replicate the issue several times. Overall, when I keep my voltage at stock, do the usual OC, it's working fine, no BSOD. This is using AOCLBF alone. But together with Afterburner, I'm having the issue. I hope I made sense. Just woke up. lol ;D Again thanks for the work! EDIT: And Yeah! I 2nd the motion for like an Apply/Save for OC settings.

Besides that, got even more hashes than before (which are shown in kilohashes now). Update: I tried fpgaminer's version, this one runs even smoother - with supported stale rate. I see my yesterdays mistake.. -> 15 mhashes boost! Will try it on my mining-rig now. Update 2: no stales yet, pretty awesome. GPU detection + heat monitor works properly, good work!

2. Convert speed of poclbm to Mhash (string to integer, value divided by 1000, integer to string) Also, when share is submitted in poclbm speed at OSD is wrong (it needs some way to remember last displayed value and displays it when share accepted ( not when connection problems)).

Title: Re: AOCLBF (was Phoenix Rising): Front End GUI to Phoenix/POCLBM Post by: magicrat80 on June 24, 2011, 12:33:27 AM Having a few issues with AOCLBF.
I've downloaded Pheonix 1.50 and placed/extracted into a AOCLBF folder I've downloaded POCLBM 20110428 and placed/extracted into a AOCLBF folder I've downlaoded AOCLBF 1.71 and placed/extracted into a AOCLBF folder Upon starting AOCLBF it asks how many clients I would like to create. Input 1 and hit okay. Then I get AutoIT Error Line 8689 (File "C:\aoclbf\aoclbf 1.71.exe") Error: Array variable subscript badly formatted. I've looked through the release topic to find other people had similiar issues but not exactley the same. I tried everything that they stated would fix the other error messages but no dice. My system specs: Windows 7 64bit 4GB Ram Sapphire ATI HD5830 Catalyst 11.5 ATI SDK 2.4 Afterburner Currently running GUIMiner and pheonix perfectly. Have closed GUIminer and Afterburner and still no dice. I'm using the executable from the mediafire link (which I figure is the 32bit version) yet it is said to still work on 64bit Windows. Since I had no luck with that I looked at compiling myself. Downloaded AutoIT and compiled AOCLBF myself but needed an include called _processlistfunctions.au3. After some googling, found the source and put it inside the Includes folder (under the AutoIT directory). Here's the link for those who need it. http://sites.google.com/site/ascend4ntscode/processfunctions (http://sites.google.com/site/ascend4ntscode/processfunctions) After doing that, compiled the 1.71 version without the X64 tick box and got a new error Line 7912 (File "C:\aoclbf\aoclbf.exe"): Error: Array variable subscript badly formatted. Tried this with the X64 (which is apparantley broken since v1.4) and got this error message Line 7832 (File "C:\aoclbf\aoclbf.exe"): Error: Subscript used with non-Array variable. So, still no luck but maybe someone else out there has a solution. Can anyone help? Title: Re: AOCLBF (was Phoenix Rising): Front End GUI to Phoenix/POCLBM Post by: lvlrdka22 on June 24, 2011, 01:46:55 AM Open .au3 to edit, hit F5. Do whatever (e.g. create clients).

Title: Re: AOCLBF (was Phoenix Rising): Front End GUI to Phoenix/POCLBM Post by: huayra.agera on June 24, 2011, 03:30:40 AM I know I would be asking too much but would it be great if you could include in your package the "miners" (Poclbm with phatk / Phoenix 1.50). I also checked there is a new version of Poclbm : https://github.com/m0mchil/poclbm. A fusion of your frontend plus the miners in one package would be great so that it would be an extract and run configure mine approach. You can just put a link of your front end as standalone, and the other link for the package with miners.
I 2nd the motion for a console like tab as well as a summary tab (what is shown in OSD shown in Summary tab instead) where in we can run the clients without the need to switch to tabs (for multiple gpus). OSD disable as well. A one button run or autostart at program launch would be great.

I'm running 1.71 btw. //Edit Is there any reason this is slower than GUIminer? I placed it in the GUIminer folder which has phoenix ect.. with all the same settings it was atleast 10 MH/s slower for each GPU In regards to the slower MH/s, I found after just playing around and setting it up for the first time that AOCLBF takes first preference to default to POCLBM so it may be doing that. I removed PCOLBM and it defaulted to PHOENIX which gave me heaps better MH/s. I had to manually set the FLAGS for BFI_INT (Couldn't choose even though I've got a 5830) and gave it a "-v" aswell. Can't remember what the -v does but I've always used it (might be for VECTORS which I have ticked but not 100% sure as I'm away from that computer). So try removing POCLBM, restart the program and you might see faster speeds (unless you have already done that) Title: Re: AOCLBF (was Phoenix Rising): Front End GUI to Phoenix/POCLBM Post by: Departure on June 24, 2011, 09:33:19 AM Newest version is weird 1.73

Results: All worked fine, but none of programs want work with 2.1 SDK (I have also installed 2.4 SDK), even when old poclbm is working fine on 2.1 SDK. Second thing - when using old poclbm with same settings as via cmd or Guiminer I'm getting worse results. Its connected somehow with GPU usage, which was about 10% lower. Other programs had same issue (huge GPU throtling (up to 40%) compared to about 5% of Guiminer/cmd). I'm not sure, if its miners itself (phoenix and poclbm with phatk), cuz I didnt checked it via console, but I assume that its same issue as with old poclbm. BTW got any idea, why miners are so much throthled down?

Title: Re: AOCLBF (was Phoenix Rising): Front End GUI to Phoenix/POCLBM Post by: lvlrdka22 on June 24, 2011, 06:40:42 PM I remember hearing that there's an argument where you can specify which SDK you want to use.
Not sure about the speed difference. Could be heat, could be CPU bottleneck (doubt it), could be external tool limiting performance (check GPU usage). Title: Re: AOCLBF (was Phoenix Rising): Front End GUI to Phoenix/POCLBM Post by: zimpixa on June 24, 2011, 07:26:07 PM Argument - platform - tried (otherwise it wouldnt start). But AOCLPM finds GPU as idle (compared to 370MHash on Guiminer with same settings and platform)
Heat - 62C lower card, 71C higher ( when it was alone i had it working at 76C with higher clocks) Nothing is limiting performance, cuz when only one of cards is working its 99% usage all time. Title: Re: AOCLBF (was Phoenix Rising): Front End GUI to Phoenix/POCLBM Post by: lvlrdka22 on June 25, 2011, 12:49:50 AM Were you using "--platform=PLATFORMID" for POCLBM and "PLATFORM=PLATFORMID" for Phoenix, where PLATFORMID is an index number (like Device Number)?
There's also a log file that shows what flags are being used to launch. Yeah, it seems like that's the difference between SDKs (some guy sees about 10% difference between 2.1 and 2.4). Title: Re: AOCLBF (was Phoenix Rising): Front End GUI to Phoenix/POCLBM Post by: Departure on June 25, 2011, 06:36:18 AM K new problem kinda...
Just tried with 6 GPU's running 11.6 drivers, It detects them in Temps and creates the correct amount of tabs per GPU(6) but now in the select device it only shows 4 of the 6 GPU's.. I know its possible because GUIminer detects all 6 in the select device and they all run, But GUIminer doesn't have the features you have with temp monitoring ect.. IF possible can we get an update for detecting the selected device? Example .... .[0] cayman .[1] cayman .[2] cayman .[3] cayman but shows 6 tabs and has all the GPUs in temp selection 0,0,5,10,12,14,15 ofcause one of these is the CPU. it should show... .[0] cayman .[1] cayman .[2] cayman .[3] cayman .[4] cayman .[5] cayman Thanks for your great effort and work ... Title: Re: AOCLBF (was Phoenix Rising): Front End GUI to Phoenix/POCLBM Post by: lvlrdka22 on June 25, 2011, 06:55:19 AM Try running this and pasting the output. http://www.mediafire.com/?p9i80it24z879d6
It probably has to do with the Windows limit on number of OpenCL GPUs. If you feel like it, you can try going to a much older version and putting in the Device Number manually, and see if it runs on all 6. Title: Re: AOCLBF (was Phoenix Rising): Front End GUI to Phoenix/POCLBM Post by: Departure on June 25, 2011, 07:12:26 AM Code: Platform 1 information: FULL_PROFILE As you can see it has something to do with OpenCL but yet GUIminer detects this and im sure he uses the OpenCl API's as the vendor names match... ADL seems to detect them. I did small test with Delphi as I code in delphi to see if it detects using the OpenCl and it showed all 6 GPU's Title: Re: AOCLBF (was Phoenix Rising): Front End GUI to Phoenix/POCLBM Post by: lvlrdka22 on June 25, 2011, 04:17:02 PM Can't help there.

Title: Re: AOCLBF (was Phoenix Rising): Phoenix/POCLBM GUI With Built-In Overclock Tool Post by: um0rion on June 25, 2011, 04:59:18 PM Hey, great program, I switched from guiminer to this once the OSD info started showing up for me (for a while it wouldnt). One thing im wondering though, the text this shows when clients are mining looks terrible, it looks like the letters are bold, but it looks as if there is a white shadow around each letter. Black looks great on a white background, but white on a white background leaves a bluish "residue" where the text would be, red on a black background has a white shadow to all the letters, green on black has the same white shadow, as does the blue on black background. Is this just me, or?

Strange because the same OpenCl.dll detects 6 when using Delphi and GUIMiner also detects 6 and im he uses the OpenCL.dll for detection But thanks anyway it is an awsome front end, I might have to try and make my own front end in delphi to support the 6 GPU's only problem is ADL kinda sucky in delphi and not much reference around for the functions and procedures in delphi ..

Fan speed is definitely need to be saved as slow running fan with high core clk with temp rise may kill the GPU. I always set the fan speed to 100 or 75, depending on card & noise. Also why the OSD stay on top? Whatever window i open i see OSD on my right showing. Why changed from desktop only to all windows?

Title: Re: AOCLBF (was Phoenix Rising): Phoenix/POCLBM GUI With Built-In Overclock Tool Post by: hennessy on July 01, 2011, 10:48:54 PM GPU usage is not as maxed out as it could be compared to just running phoenix in console. Console only gives me always 99% load. With 3 workers I get 98-99% for each, 4 workers even worse, very unstable between 95-99%. Could it be cpu usage? AOCLBF uses up to 21% with 4 workers every two seconds, with 3 workers only up to 10%.
EDIT cpu usage of AOCLBF is even higher when using the temperature control in the overlay, goes up to 40% with 4 cards and reducing MHs rate from 294 to 291 :( My guess is that this is caused by the constant overlay update that is gathering data every second times 4. Can i somehow adjust the updating speed? Or how about a console view only.

Title: Re: AOCLBF (was Phoenix Rising): Phoenix/POCLBM GUI With Built-In Overclock Tool Post by: newunit16 on July 03, 2011, 01:57:14 AM i second the console view only. or at least set time to update OSD. i found that the OSD can be moved "reliably", but you must have your pointer over the text pixels. this is tedious. perhaps a section of the OSD with "live pixels" to make it easily movable?
i use msi afterburner to "monitor" my temps. but i dig the built in functionality of miner pause on X temp. i know this could be achieved with multiple pieces of software, but i like the package this man has made.

I like the preview, not too interested in the trade thing personally, but OSD at the bottom looks a lot better than current one, Personally I would still prefer it in a summary tab and a total hash rate output would be great also. Also it would be nice to squeeze in an option for update time this does infact reduce MH/s when you are calling the function which gets temps ect.. so having an option to set how often it updates would come in useful. Great job keep up the excellent work. Title: Re: AOCLBF (was Phoenix Rising): Phoenix/POCLBM GUI With Built-In Overclock Tool Post by: Bloody Angel on July 04, 2011, 04:39:08 PM First:

edit: -w or --worksize controls the work group size. it defaults to the maximum value reported by the card and going above that will likely result in the miner crashing. there's no real hard and set rule for this and it varies from card to card, so find someone with your same card and ask, look at the mining hardware comparison for inspiration, or just poke in various values and look what happens to the hash rate. :) Title: Re: AOCLBF (was Phoenix Rising): Phoenix/POCLBM GUI With Built-In Overclock Tool Post by: huayra.agera on July 08, 2011, 04:38:02 AM Any updates on this awesome program?

There is a new version of poclbm and they implemented a new syntax, I hope you can update aoclbf with their syntax since I've tried your foreman app with the new poclbm and it's not working. Thanks!

Title: Re: AOCLBF (was Phoenix Rising): Phoenix/POCLBM GUI With Built-In Overclock Tool Post by: BrianH on July 10, 2011, 08:15:05 PM I see a problem with version 1.74. Same problem.Adding new client causes all other old clients to loose HD5xxx, Fastloop, phatk, Aggression settings. Even checking the check boxes again & save setting has no use. Only way to solve is to edit the aoclbf.ini file manually & change 0 to 1. All kinds of issues with mine. -Using two 6950s, HD5xxx+, Fastloop, phatk and aggression settings are greyed out. -Run/Stop is greyed out on the first client. -Clicking run on the second does nothing, but causes a massive memory leak and the client is unable to close. In short, I have never been able to get it working, so I am not sure what normal operation looks like. Is there any way to see how many Mhash/s each card is producing? Title: Re: AOCLBF (was Phoenix Rising): Phoenix/POCLBM GUI With Built-In Overclock Tool Post by: lvlrdka22 on July 10, 2011, 09:13:10 PM @lvlrdka22 Eh, that's what it looks like when color depth is set to 16 bit (an old game I play requires that).I like the preview, not too interested in the trade thing personally, but OSD at the bottom looks a lot better than current one, Personally I would still prefer it in a summary tab and a total hash rate output would be great also. Also it would be nice to squeeze in an option for update time this does infact reduce MH/s when you are calling the function which gets temps ect.. so having an option to set how often it updates would come in useful. Great job keep up the excellent work. i'm using TechPowerUp GPU-Z 0.5.4 to get the data from the three sensors of each card. As AOCLBF seems to get the correct data for my hd5850, it seems my 5770 temperature data is somehow displayed wrong by AOCLBF (man, a rename would be awsome as well ;)) any idea, why this is happening? It reads the first temperature (which is what GPU-z says is the core temperature, at least for my 5850s). Been too lazy to add the option to choose other temperature sensors.

I'm trying to resolve the CPU issue with CCC 11.6 so I uninstalled the drivers and loaded CCC 11.2. For some reason now I'm having two issues. 1).

Check out opencl is installed by using GPU caps viewer.
If it says & still you cant mine with directly using phoenix or poclbm or diablo miner, then better uninstall ati drivers fully, ONLY AFTER THAT, use driver sweeper to completely remove all the AMD by analyse & clean. You can do it in safe mode, so that it removes all drivers. Then install again. Also before doing that all, u can re install, AMD APP only, some times that too solves problem.

Title: Re: AOCLBF (was Phoenix Rising): Phoenix/POCLBM GUI With Built-In Overclock Tool Post by: um0rion on July 12, 2011, 09:26:49 PM Ive got a feature request that I think would be pretty nice. Every now and then a site gets DDoS'd. If that site is your startup miner, it'll look for it, then wait the alotted time and retries, then switch the backup. A lot of times a site could be down for days. I have 1 popular pool (More likely to get DDoS'd, and a smaller pool as backup.
Would it be possible to: have a button to switch primary/backup pools on every miner, OR, have checkboxes to designate which of two pools to use as startup/backup? They're there now to say "do this on startup" and "use a backup pool" but maybe just use a simple check for the startup, and let the unchecked pool be the backup server by default? If you havent specified a backup pool and the main one goes down, you arent going to be mining anything, so if a pool goes down and searches for a null pool, the effect will be the same. Just my thoughts. My main issue with this is that I have a windows system with 4x cards, and a pool like bitcoins.lc assigns worker names and passwords that are random. Clearing all the fields then re-entering them in the backup slot is time consuming, and if I ever want it the other way around, Ive got to spend another 10 minutes to swap them back.

im running this tool, and find it pretty good (my favourite so far, GUI or no GUI) My only "issue" is that it does not remember fan settings, so i have to enable amd overdrive, and set fanspeeds with that. If i set this to start on boot (putting its shortcur on the "startup" folder), it starts before AMD CCC, and sometimes hangs my pc. If i start it from a script, wich i set to "sleep" for a few mminutes, so that everything else is loaded first, it never starts the miners. Both run and stop buttons remain greyed out. (if i manually start it from a script, with no sleep involved, it does the same thing, it wont work). Any good ideas for starting this on boot, but only after everything else is set ? thx Title: Re: AOCLBF (was Phoenix Rising): Phoenix/POCLBM GUI With Built-In Overclock Tool Post by: Internet151 on July 29, 2011, 09:22:20 AM Please for the love of god allow this app to change fan speed automatically when starting up the app.
Title: Re: AOCLBF (was Phoenix Rising): Phoenix/POCLBM GUI With Built-In Overclock Tool Post by: OldChap on July 31, 2011, 11:45:58 PM Hi, Selecting openCL device with one card is working fine for me on rigs with 1 card
However whilst it also works fine with 1.74 and 2 cards, with 1.75 and 2 cards the issue seems to be that no matter what number I define manually the second card is not seen. For temp monitoring there are 3 options: 0,0 and 3. Selecting 3 for the temp monitoring clearly shows the second card temps Incidentally, selecting the 1. cypress option for the first card then the 0 option manually for the second runs both on one card. Is there a file I can edit to cure this? EDIT: Using 11.8 drivers, win7 64U and rolling back to 11.7 drivers and 1.74 on this machine did not help. Title: Re: AOCLBF (was Phoenix Rising): Phoenix/POCLBM GUI With Built-In Overclock Tool Post by: dishwara on August 01, 2011, 06:09:42 AM To those who want to control fan speed, since the developer of AOCLBF not available, you can use Clocktweak.
https://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=9982.0 It is not free, but the 20 cents you give is 100% worth. I bought this software 2 months back & when i tried that time it didn't work, so abandoned. But a week before again tried with the old file i downloaded & the developer gives FREE upgrades. The tool perfectly over clocks & under clocks & also control fan speed. Besides it has power tune option, so you don't even need to install CCC(which is crap). Check out the link above & control fan.

Anyway, just to contribute to the community, for Windows users, Sapphire Trixx has version 4.0.2 up and it can control fan speeds as well. You can now also OC the cards individually for multi-gpu configs.
