Ok, I'll implement it in next update.

@Claymore: Feature request  Grin
Can you please consider the possibility of introducing some kind of pool management mechanism? Allowing us to move to one of the failover pools without having to restart the miner or change the config file?
Right now, dcr.suprnova is not displaying my hashrate so I would like to temporarily move to my failover DCR pool. But I can only do that by restarting the miner and changing the config files.
Not a practical solution, right?
Can you please give it some thought?
Thanks!

From Readme, "FAILOVER" section:
....
You can reload "epools.txt" and "dpools.txt" files in runtime by pressing "r" key.
....
Also check my answer a bit above: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1433925.msg18614680#msg18614680

Thank you for the prompt replay. I'm familiar with that feature and I've been using it. I was asking for a way to cycle through the available pools without the need to change the contents of the .txt files.

Hmm... How do you think it must look like?

@Claymore Can you implement it to where we can change pools without restarting the miner? I can do this in other miners by using a .conf, but haven't seen how to do it with your miners.....unless I have just missed how to do it.

You can apply new epools.txt via Remote Manager (EthMan). Or you can press "R" in miner to reload epools.txt.

sometimes the miner hangs but not totally
if you press S key it shows stat and then says that it is really hanging and then restarts itself

why this happens and why the miner does not detect such kind of hanging(tough it's still running because it can process user input) and does not restart without user actions

Try this from FAQ (first post):

- Miner freezes if I put cursor to its window in Windows 10 until any key is pressed. Sometimes miner freezes randomly until any key is pressed.
  You should make some changes in Windows:

@claymore
Wrong calculations with 1 GPU? Total and GPU0 should be same with 1 GPU only right?

One thread puts statistics. Other thread reads it, firstly it reads data per cards and puts it to screen, then it reads it again to get total speed. If first thread writes new stats between these two operations, total speed may differ. I will fix it in next update so you will always see "total" as sum of displayed speeds.

Claymore, ASM is not suitable for RX460? It is not working, still only etha 0.

I don't have RX460, so probably ASM mode does not work there.
Any chance to make it working? Is it problem with RX460 id's or what? Can I help?

PM me the log file (first 100 lines or so).

v9.1:

- added assembler kernels for ETH+SIA and ETH+PASCAL modes (major speedup for SIA and PASCAL).
- added alternative assembler kernels for Tonga and Polaris cards for ETH-only mode. Use them if you get best speed at "-dcri 1" (i.e. you cannot find speed peak), use "-asm 2" option to enable this mode.
- a few minor bug fixes and improvements.

I apologize if this has been asked before (probably has).  On dual mining Claymore software like ETH/SIA (for example), if one of my miners has 6 cards, with 2 dual mining and 4 single mining, how will I be charged? Will I be charged 2% on all six?  Or will I be charged 2% on two and 1% on four?  Thanks for your reply and patience with any redundant questions.

Added to OP (FAQ section):

As soon as you enable dual mining, devfee is 2% for all cards. But you can start two miner instances and split cards between them to get 1% on first instance and 2% on second.

Hello all, and thanks Claymore for new miner version!

Though, I have a problem and hopefully one can help me about that.
I got several rigs of 3x470, 4x470 (4 GB) and 4x470 (8 GB) videocards.
After updating the Claymore ETH from 7.4 version to 9.0 I got a strange problem.
Decred increased *2, that's a fact, but hashrate of both ETH and DCR became floating. Usually my cards give 21 or 24 Mh/s (nothing is overclocked/modded, all stock) depending on whether its Asus strix 4gb or Sapphire nitro 8gb, but now once in several seconds one or two cards in the rig drops hashrate to 17-18 mh/s on eth and to 400 mhs (instead of usual 600 mhs) on dcr.

Added to OP:

- AMD cards: On some Polaris cards you can notice non-constant mining speeds in dual mode when ASM mode is used; you can also see in GPU-Z that memory controller load is not constant, it drops for a few seconds.
   This issue is related to hardware and I cannot find any good workaround for now. Try to increase "-dcri" value a bit, it will reduce ETH speed a bit, but speeds will be much more stable.

Any update on other coins getting new Algo?  

I will release new version with ASM for ETH+SIA and ETH+PASCAL within several hours.
574  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Claymore's ZCash AMD GPU Miner v12.4 (Windows/Linux) on: April 13, 2017, 12:38:34 PM
As I said before (several times), I'm not going to create ZEC miner for Nvidia.
575  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Claymore's Dual Ethereum AMD+NVIDIA GPU Miner v9.0 (Windows/Linux) on: April 13, 2017, 11:53:52 AM
Hi Claymore, RX580 8G is not working good in stock just giving 22-23 Mh. Is it because your miner does not support this card yet?

I don't have any 5xx cards yet. Does miner recognize it as "Ellesmere" and apply "ASM" algorithm? PM me the log file.
576  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Claymore's Dual Ethereum AMD+NVIDIA GPU Miner v9.0 (Windows/Linux) on: April 12, 2017, 07:29:38 PM
ANN: In 2-3 days I will release new version with assembler kernels for ETH+SIA and ETH+PASCAL modes, with similar speedup as for DCR.
Thanks however can you also add this feature for people who mine with both ZEC and ETH with your miners.
If a rig has 6 GPUs say ( 280X,280X,280X, 480, 480, 480)
The 280X usually mine ZEC and the 480 usually mine ETH
However if someone runs ZEC with the first 3 GPUs (GPU0, GPU1, GPU2) and runs ETH with the rest ( GPU3, GPU4, GPU5)
Then the second program ETH-Miner will incorrectly label the GPUs. Instead of GPU3,GPU4, GPU5, they will start at GPU0,GPU1,GPU2 and it will read the temperatures from the first 3 cards and not the latter 3 and if GPU0 from ZEC overheats, then GPU0 and GPU3 will also throttle (using TTLI)
THis is hard to explain, let me know if you need photos.

Use "-gmap" option to manage list of temps/fans.

Claymore, run some test on rx480 to fix the fluctuation problem on rx480 cards.

I use stock cards for tests. Yes at some dcri value I can see memory controller load deviations in GPU-Z, it's about 90% but then it's 65% for a few seconds. For my Nitro+ 480 I see it at "-dcri 47". Try to increase -dcri value a bit, for me "-dcri 50" is stable.
Of course your values will be different if you use different card/bios/clocks.

Yes it is stable with dcri 50, however it decreases eth hashrate in greater amount.
Instead, if possible could you please double check miner code and see if miner works stable, without sacrificing ETH hashrate? For me "-dcri 30" is the most for ETH >> 29.3 ETH, 875 DCR but when using this value, gpus randomly have memory controller load deviations in GPU-Z, and this is seen through miner console. As a result lower effective hashrate is calculated on pool.

What if you use "-dcri 35"?

i tried that

with -dcri 30 i get 142 on eth and 4200 on dcr
with -dcri 35 i get 132 on eth and 4600 on dcr

it's stable but eth hashrate is much lower

What if you use "-dcri 33"?
Above I marked the key phrase ("try to increase -dcri value a bit"), but it seems I should say values directly...
I understand you'd like to see x2 hashrate and smooth work, but hardware has different opinion, memory controller goes crazy at some -dcri values and I don't see any workarounds for now (without losing hashrate).
For stock clocks/bios, increasing -dcri value +3 gave me -0.5% ETH of maximum but stable hashrate. May be it does not work for modded bios, I don't know.
