I'm working on it right now... well, that and trying to add full support for "include" in config files. Someone else said batch files were not working correctly, but I need more info because the batch files I've created for testing all work.

I've tried to make getting this info as easy as possible. After starting the miner in 1.1.8.0c, go to Tests tab and click Create Debug Report, then preferably email me the results because it is a lot of text. This debug report should show the contents of your batch file near the bottom. If it doesn't, could you send me that as well? If it is not included in the report it may be related to the same issue causing it to fail to monitor the miner correctly.

PM'd... not sure what happened but it worked after I started it up.  Maybe right now it is just requiring me to restart the program after adding a new profile with a batch in it?

I just uploaded 1.1.9. I am hoping it will resolve any reported issues with batch files, among other improvements.

There is also a donation mining option in the Schedule tab. Please consider donating a small portion of your mining time to support this project and CGRemote.

Batch files are working great!  I emailed you a debug on the donation mining... it crashed when I enabled it.

Im currently mining {Most profitable adjusted} (right now is infinite coin) but when i go to the profitability page to check, it doesn't show infinite coin at all even after a restart or if the refresh button is pressed. Any ideas?

A similar problem was reported today in the Newbie thread. I didn't realize coins would drop off of Coinchoose if they had no buy orders. I would have guessed maybe the profitability would be unknown, but not for it to disappear completely. I'll be addressing this issue today.

Regarding CGRemote... the core functionality is all working and there will be a closed beta soon, hopefully next week. How soon before release depends on how that goes, but I don't expect too long. The latest version of CGWatcher supports it, though additional features will be added with each new version. I'll be posting more info and updates on the CGRemote page and will create a forum post when it is ready.

Version 1.2.3 is available. I updated the original post but if you're already here, the most prominent changes in this update are:

  • Restart computer if accepted or total share count doesn't change for N minutes.
  • Config files can now be set to URLs in Profile Manager.
  • New scheduled action: change intensity for specified GPU.
  • Switch to most profitable, most profitable (adjusted), most profitable (average), lowest difficulty, highest reward, lowest network hashrate, lowest network hashrate (average), or next profile.
  • For each of the conditional profile changes, you can set 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc. to get 1st most profitable, 2nd most profitable, 3rd most profitable, etc. of the coins you mine (have linked to a profile)
  • New scheduled action frequencies: Run on specific date at specific time, run when computer becomes idle, run when computer becomes no longer idle, run when specified program starts, run when specified program stops. These can trigger any scheduled action.
  • Allow customization of FPGA and ASIC devices to correct the miner reporting them incorrectly (e.g. BFGMiner reporting all ASICs as FPGAs. You can even create custom codes and names for devices.
  • Performance improvements, including CGWatcher startup.
  • Auto-update option with included utility to automatically update to new versions.

I've been using this with CGMiner and some GPUs. Last night, I added some of the USB stick ASICs. I ended up running BFGMiner for them, simultaneous with CGMiner for the GPUs. Is there a way to have CGWatcher working for both mining programs at the same time? Or is there some other way to make sure BFGMiner keeps going/restarts if there are problems?

Yes, but this requires one instance of CGWatcher per miner. And currently you need to run each instance from a separate folder, otherwise they will overwrite each other's settings in the INI file. I will fix this in the future, but CGRemote is my current priority. Getting this to work is pretty simple, but I'll try to give as much detail as I can so it may seem complicated until you read through the steps. The basic idea is setting up two CGWatchers, each using a unique API port so they don't communicate with the wrong miner.

So assuming you want to run two miners, cgminer using GPUs and bfgminer using ASICs...

1. Setup your desired profiles and settings in CGWatcher. Make sure you have one profile for cgminer using GPUs and another profile for bfgminer using the ASICs.

2. Copy the CGWatcher folder to another location, so if the original is C:\Mining\CGWatcher, you could name the second copy C:\Mining\CGWatcherB. Or you could put one CGWatcher folder inside of the other one. The important thing is that each has its own folder and therefore its own cgwatcher.exe.ini file.

3. With all miners closed, open CGWatcher A (the one you want to use with ccgminer) and go to the Settings tab. Make sure the 'Miner IP Address' setting is set to 127.0.0.1:4028 and check the 'Use only this API port' checkbox. Click Save Settings to save the changes.

4. Start the other CGWatcher (B, the one you want to use with bfgminer) and do the same, but this time change the 'Miner IP Address' to 127.0.0.1:4029. Click Save Settings.

So you should now have both CGWatchers running and each is using a different port. You can set the port number to any port number not in use, but 4028 and 4029 should work for most people.

5. In each CGWatcher instance, set the profile you want that instance to use. So CGWatcher A would use a cgminer profile setup to use GPUs, and CGWatcher B would use a bfgminer profile setup to use ASICs.

6. Start the miner in CGWatcher A, then start the miner in CGWatcher B.

The other option is trying to get GPUs and ASICs working all in one miner, but I understand that is not always preferable as different versions might work better with certain devices. If you have any questions or problems, let me know.

I'm hoping to start the CGRemote beta within a week... (*hoping*, I'd say two weeks at the most but am really shooting for the middle of next week. I'm happy with the framework and the rest of the work now is relatively easy stuff. Until it is ready, updates are being posted to http://manotechnology.blogspot.com/p/cgremote.html

Sorry unpack, I'm not sure what you mean. The download link is via Dropbox. As mentioned in the post and readme, the source has not yet been released so that is why it is not yet on GitHub.
