Hi, new miner here ...
Initially I had a great experience with this bminer. It is stable and fast. CPU utilization was fine and my overall power consumption less than 700W for 6x 1070ti OC with core +200, memory +700 and power 60%.
Unfortunately, after more than 8 hours of mining on nanopool it turned out I was not mining at all.
When starting the miner, it is connecting to the correct URL and it reports I was authenticated.
I don't know if this is problem with the software or the pool. Other miners work just fine though.
I would love to use this one, but I cannot do it before I can specify email in the username as required by nanopool and being able to verify connectivity again.
May I suggest to dich the connection string parsing in favor of just using server/user/password parameters as every other similar software...

SET WORKER_NAME=miner1
SET USERNAME=%ADDRESS%.%WORKER_NAME%
SET POOL=zec-eu1.nanopool.org:16666

YOUR_WORKER/YOUR_EMAIL are optional in nanopool -- to mine on nanopool, what you need to do is to simply change the address to point to your address.
There are a few more examples on https://www.bminer.me/examples.
But you do bring up a good point on how to pass in username / password. That's something I'll consider and look into. Thanks for the feedback.
Thanks for the reply!
My wallet info is correct. I'm using the same configuration for different mining applications. The only problem with Nonopool I had is with bminer. I know the email is optional, but I was wondering how to verify pool or software problem caused 8 hours of 0 work actually done.
BTW, I'm currently using bminer for ZCL@suprnova and it works fine.
As a software developer myself, I do suggest you don't try using URI the way you are doing it. You should build it using separate input parameters. This way you will not have problems with characters in the value matching your separator characters.
Cheers!
