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

[jml25]

Things look good with 2.6 so far! Thanks as always for the release.

One thought- seeing my minepeon machine in the network area makes me sad I can't better control it - is there a thought down the road of being able to actually install MuM onto a distro that works on a pi?

Also, one of my machines seems to show the expected profit from the network machines, but the other machines do not. This machine also has no mining running off it at this time (well, two drillbit thumbs, but running on cgminer because I haven't had time to make the switch). Any thoughts as to why I can't see a rollup of the expected profit off all connected devices on the network? (I thought I saw this on one of your screenshots a page or two ago)

Thanks again!

I have another one of these crashes and I saved the report.
Can you point to the Github area to post it for you as I am not familiar with that end of it.

Doubtful, but I do plan on more control of the Network Devices through the API they already have.

Also, one of my machines seems to show the expected profit from the network machines, but the other machines do not.

Expected profit requires donations and perks to be enabled, maybe that is the difference? It could also be that the Coin APIs are down on some machines. You can check that by enabling API error notifications under Settings > Advanced service settings.

Perks is enabled on all of them and they're all pointing at coinchoose right now (too damn cheap to pay for more api calls on coinwarz )

I get the scrypt profit estimation on the other machines, just not the stuff from the network, I only seem to get that on the machine that's not scrypt mining.

Maybe a couple of screenshots would help illustrate the problem?

I do see it over there it has not happened yet since the update today.
I will keep and eye on it.
Thanks again.

is there any way to check the difficulty reported by bfgminer and not just reported by coinchoose or coinwarz? (love the api failover btw)

Still on the to-do list for a future update.

nwoolls,

so i have used the software for half a day, of course ran out of coinwarz api in the first couple of hours so it switched to coinchoose which has absolutely incorrect data for most coins which renders multiminer unable to pick the right coin. coinchoose has been telling multiminer that WDC for example is more profitable than doge, while its like 20th on the list on coinwarz. Wasted my rig time for hours. also coinchoose is missing some critical coins like neo and net. coinchoose also think litecoin is the third most profitable to mine while its actually the 20 or 30th coin.

basically what im saying is that i still have to manually check coinwarz and switch coins. i still love your program as it makes it easy to manage all these pools and switch with a couple of clickcs between coins. i wish the mobile app could order the rig to switch coins though, that would be awesome. On my phone I held my finger on my machine and the only option is to delete the rig. Also bfgminer seems to give a bit higher hashrate than cgminer. pretty interesting.

Set it for once an hour and you won't run out, or just don't put in your API key for coinwarz if you don't want the failover.

Unfortunately, coinchoose is having some pretty big issues at the moment.

I too would like it to cease suggesting coins that are less than the coin set to never mine anything less valuable than.  I requested this a while back.

This is still on my to-do list, but I believe he is referring to having the strategies ignore coins that "spike" in profitability and then immediately fall back down (not the "coin suggestions" feature).

Could you post your to-do list somewhere so that we can see what you have on the horizon?  Perhaps even order it in priority?

I'll have to think about it. It's a possibility. It would mean making my board on Trello for MultiMiner visible to the public (and searchable on Google).

Can't it just be copied into the first post like BFGminer does?

Yes but it's constantly changing. Then I need to update both places. If I'm going to do it I'd rather not have to spend my time doing double-entry of data.

Edit: It's not a "no" - I just need to give it some thought about how I want to publish the data.

Of course!

Here's one of the scrypt miners. Note the network pi is seen but the profit estimations is just for this machines GPU:

Here's one of the machine that has MM installed, I plan on using the proxy on this machine soon, but right now, there's nothing hashing attached to it. But it shows the profit of (I'm presuming) the network visible pi.

Hope that makes sense - let me know if it doesn't. Sorry it took a bit to get the screenshots back to you!

No problem - can I get you to email me - nwoolls @ gmail please? We can follow up there to work this out. Thanks!

Hi everyone,

I have a problem with Multiminer. I have 6 GPUs R9 290 on Linux (ubuntu). Mobo: msi z77a-g45. Linux can see all cards, but when I install Multiminer, it can see only one card!

Can you help me to solve it?

[djaychela]

I have a question, which may be a problem. 

Until today I've not been using MultiMiner for both scrypt and SHA-256, but after the excellent 2.6 release I decided to bite the bullet and ditch CGwatcher (which I was running in parallel without too many issues), and use MultiMiner to monitor both.  I got it up and running pretty easily, but have a query - the effective mining rate of the scrypt coins is shown as far higher than I'm actually getting:

http://darrenjones.is-a-geek.com/~darren/pics/multiminer.png

I'd love to be getting 69Mh/s and 74Mh/s from my two cards, but alas it's not the case.

Am I missing something, or is this a bug?

[nwoolls]

Am I missing something, or is this a bug?

It's just a visual bug in bfgminer's API results. It's already fixed for the next bfgminer update. Thanks for reporting it.

If you'd like to test a daily build of bfgminer with the fix you can nab it here:
