Megaminer 6.3 - Multi pool / Multi Algo launcher

Feature Request: Please add a time tag in the log - will make locating time periods possible. Would be in 24h format - such as:

[08:22] Next Interval:  914 secs...

or

0822 Next Interval: 914 secs...

I dont like actual log system, I tried to change it two times for something more informative, but no luck.


I will try to add datetime

Sometimes I have such problem:

After some non-usual error in ccminer (especially on x17) , ccminer - not exit and continue to work but actually not mining.
It even show some hashrate (~10 mhz instead of ~100 for 6 cards) and make some workr for GPU (so temperature ~25 degreese).
And MegaMiner keeped it for 1 hour until I rebootet the computer..

Is it possible to add someting like such setting:
-----------
If XXX secconds passed
and current hashrate < than 50% of banchmarked hashrate,
then - restart miner.
-------------------

Actually, if no speed detected for a time, miner must be closed, i will add this feature to to do list.

[tutulfo]

Which algos are supported by this miner or where can i find it?
ty

No list yet, I think is near all available for AMD and Nvidia

I keep running in into the "blank screen" problem with no miners running using version 5.1. The most reliable version has been 5.0 beta 3. Since then I keep getting this issue. The logs don't show anything useful:

I just got a thought - I usually test your releases at night - I wonder if it's the date change at midnight that's causing the issue. I'll restart the 5.1 test now and see if it runs all day without problems.

Happy Holidays!

Sometimes i get blank screen but is only screen problem, MM is running back, I push any key over MM screen and MM windos gets alive again.

When you get this screen there is activity on log?, you can see if donation.ctr file value is growthing

[jbonifacio]

When I get the blank screen no miners are running. Pressing keys doesn't refresh the screen. I will see if I can detect log file activity next time.

Maybe it makes sense to create variables to exclude from hashing algorithms and coins example: -Badalgo -Badcoin

I just started using megaminer after fighting with my computer for a day and having to do a fresh install of windows after replacing my motherboard and CPU. After benchmarking, it's reporting income on equihash as a negative number. Any idea how to fix this?

Yeah, I checked the benchmark files before posting, and it showed the hashrate from the log I posted. I'm guessing it was the pool, as this morning it's preporting dtsm as most profitable with an actual profit.

Much better! Thank you

BTW: The you need a backslash for /n :

NO POOLS!....retry in 10 sec/nREMEMBER, IF YOUR ARE MINING ON ANONYMOUS WITHOUT AUTOEXCHANGE POOLS LIKE YIIMP, NANOPOOL, ETC. YOU MUST SET WALLET FOR AT LEAST ONE POOL COIN IN CONFIG.TXT

5.1 but before versions do it too. When script is downloading miners, it is downloaded but 7zip has some problem. His window just flashes and is ended, so no miners for me. I am unable to read what 7zip write. Not logged. When I run 7zip just manualy, it start, write help and end. So it is runnable. Antivir is off. I tried to set 7zip to run as administrator, but this is same. So some logging in proces of downloading and uncompressing please.

Have you excluded MM path in youur antivirus?

I switched antivirus off. No realtime protection.

I added to your include file parameter -NoNewWindow for starting 7z process to see what 7z write, and it is this message: Incorrect command line.

I added command to write what is inside $Command before starting 7z, and it looks OK.
 x "D:\UTIL\Megaminer-5.1\zm_0.5.7_win.zip" -o "D:\UTIL\Megaminer-5.1\Bin\" -y -spe

Hmmm. So it looks like some setting on my machine do this problem.
I tried run megaminer as administrator, and I give all users all rights for whole folder and subfolders with megaminer. Still nothing. But message Incorrect command line shows, that problem is in calling 7z, but I dont know where. Maybe some invissible end of line, or something. I dont know.

I think you dont have chance to find error by my description. Maybe someone else has same problem and have more info. Lets see.

[jbonifacio]

Sinuhet, here's the latest bin directory packaged with 7z if you want it:

What this software have more than awesomeminer, or nicehash?

I mean does it gives more profit using special miners like sp_mod or there are another kind of advantages?

[dudel42]

Is there a possibility to include some kind of watchdog to the scripts?

Like use the Gpu% value, and if the average over all GPUs is less than 50% for 5 minutes kill the miner process and restart it?

Last night I had two systems mining Phi on ahashpool, and both miner processes where stuck at "Stratum connection interrupted" messages they kept printing every minute or so. MegaMiner still displayed the last hashrate and happily kept the miners open all night (as it was the most profitable 24h all the time). as soon as I manually closed the miner process everything started up just fine again.

Maybe something like that could be added, since it is parsing and displaying the GPU usage anyway..?

thanks...

Good idea, actual watchdog is based on speed returned by miner, if process is closed or zero speed was detected for two minutes MM understand there is a problem and solve, but if miner return speed ( really is a miner bug, if no connection, api  must return zero speed) MM understand all is runing fine.
