MultiMiner: Any Miner, Any Where, on Any Device (Free, Open Source, Cross Platform)

I wish we could check "accept" and "reject" values in your mobile app(mobileminer)

Anyone else having issues with the CoinChoose API today? I did a fresh install on my machine about 12 hours ago, and haven't been able to get a solid return from Coinchoose since then, so MultiMiner is acting weird.

They're API has been returning junk for days. Reported it days ago:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=152515.msg4851784#msg4851784

I would recommend using CoinWarz, though this specific bit of junk data will be better handled in the next update.

[purelithium]

Fair enough, Coinwarz is just tougher to deal with due to their API limits.

Understood - but those payments seem to make for a more stable API. See CoinChoose.com for example 

[purelithium]

True. I just prefer the Coinchoose "profitability adjusted for stales" option because I think that's more along the lines of true profitability. I've put in a request for the fix in the Coinchoose thread, so hopefully the admin helps out!

Once Coinwarz offers bitcoin payment for the API, I may switch, but I don't feel like paying with paypal...

Here's a build that should work around the current CoinChoose.com API issues:

Under Strategies Optional it says:
Don't mine coins less profitable than {pull-down coin list}
Don't mine coins less profitable than {empty box}

MuM can mine both scrypt and SHA at the same time so what happens to scrypt if I choose a SHA coin
It would be nice if the first line specified a scrypt threshold and the second for SHA.

Then a toggle radio button:
Mine only the single most profitable coin, or
Mine all of the most profitable coins; Mine a single coin if it exceeds {empty box}

What goes in the second box, a percent or a coin name
It seems to be a percent since it accepts a number and not a coin name, but then don't we need to specify scrypt and SHA separately since people erroneously state scrypt profitability relative to BitCoin instead of LiteCoin.
One for scrypt and one for SHA would be nice.

I have a bunch of BitFurys plugged into the same miner and it's fun to watch Mine all of the most profitable coins in action 

[ManeBjorn]

I have an odd small error going on with MuM and Remoting.
Every now and the the app will show one rig as being offline.  Yet when I go down there to look everything is doing fine and there are no issues.  The only way to get Remoting to work again is to manually restart mining on that system.
It does not do it on my 2nd system.
Any ideas?

Excellent. I tipped you over on reddit for the fix! Thanks!

One lets you tell MultiMiner not to mine something less profitable than X coin. The other lets you tell MultiMiner not to mine something less profitable than XYZ amount.

It doesn't matter if you are mining Scrypt, SHA, or both. MultiMiner is not going to try to mine Scrypt with ASICs, and will use the above settings to mine the most profitable coins.

Let me know if I'm not understanding. What would be the point of two settings as you proposed? Can you tell me a scenario where it would result in mining differently than the current settings?

What goes in the second box, a percent or a coin name

A number. That number depends on if you are Auto-Mining based on Profitability, Difficulty, or Price.

Can you post a screenshot of what you mean by offline? Thanks in advance.

For those of us who mine both SHA-256 and SCRYPT coins on the same machine, would it be possible to expand the "don't mine coins less profitable than" field to divide between the two types of coins?

Such as:
Don't mine SHA256 coins less profitable than: <dropdown>
Don't mine SCRYPT coins less profitable than: <dropdown>

[nwoolls]

Such as:
Don't mine SHA256 coins less profitable than: <dropdown>
Don't mine SCRYPT coins less profitable than: <dropdown>

Sure if you can give me a scenario where this would change the way the current Auto-Mining works. Again maybe I'm missing something simple but it would be easier if you guys laid it out for me

Simple, I plug my ASICs into my headless scrypt miners with 4 to 6 video cards running. MuM does a great job of dealing with them both!
So I select:
Don't mine coins less profitable than BitCoin, and
Mine all of the most profitable coins; Mine a single coin if it exceeds 150.

This works great for SHA coins and divides up my ASICs evenly mining either BTC by itself or BTC plus all others between 100 and 149.9 or putting all ASICs on a single SHA coin if its profitability exceeds 150% of BTC.

But, the problem is that with scrypt CoinWarz quotes profitability as a ridiculous percentage of BTC and not LTC as they should. Therefore, the top scrypt coins are listed with values in the thousands of percent, e.g. at this moment DOGe is on top with 6,931%. If I pick percentages based on scrypt my ASICs will shut down.

Thank you that gives me one half of the equation - but how is this negatively impacting your Scrypt mining?

Is it because of the inclusion of "Mine all of the most profitable coins"? And this makes all Scrypt devices mine a variety of coins?

I promise I'm not trying to be dense I'm just neck-deep in totally unrelated code!  

If you can post screenshots even with little arrows saying "it shouldn't be doing this" it would be great. I can't address a lot of this stuff immediately so the more notes, pictures, etc. I have so that I can understand later, the better. Thanks!

nwools how goes grabbing miners out on the network for monitoring?  I tried to load just my Avalons last night and was picking up all 800-850GH/s on the Stratum but after 10 minutes btcguild would only grab about 600GH/s (gave it some time to pick up).  Plus since it is the Proxy it was only showing as one unit.  Donations turned on but total throughput is 1.6TH/s right now so not sure how it would act once I add my 4 Antminer S1's on to it.

System: Intel i5-4670k, 16gigs, Windows 2008R2, 1 NIC for outbound traffic (static IP) and 1 NIC for internal network traffic only.  This is the only function for this system, no other major processes running on the machine.

Uverse is a pain in the ass to make work with the "Static" IPs and then internal IPs so added a second NIC so I was finally able to use the Proxy even.

The software again is def. awesome and once I can pass through or at least get API information into the app so I can send to Mobiminer I will be sending some profits your way for the time you've put into this.  Seriously awesome man!

Okay folks - time to ask for help from those who like to live on the edge  

Version 2.6 of MultiMiner will include, among other things, automatic detection of network miners, e.g. AntMiner S1, MinePeon, etc. There is absolutely no configuration in MultiMiner. As long as the device is configured to allow API access, it should show up automatically in MultiMiner within a minute or so.

Here is a pre-release with the basics of this feature completed.

Thanks in advance for the feedback!

That's MobileMiner which is unrelated to MultiMiner Remoting. If MobileMiner is showing your rig offline it may be an API issue. I'll take a look on my end. Can you email me your MobileMiner app key?
