wrong stratum I think..which stratum do u use for x13? Port 5550?

Yes, 5550.

Does it create the xmod13 bin?

Radeon 280x Powercolor.
I actually think it doesn't matter.
Before everything was fine with these settings, then I changed to x11, then I came back to x13 and have this problem with the same settings and
I have no clue why I'm having low diff rejects now.

[bullus]

Than I don't know..which sgminer do u use? U already test it with tcc8192?
or maybe reboot the pc.

sgminer 4.1.0. I tested it with tcc8192, same result with 32768...
May be I'll try to reboot it later, right now I'll stay to mine x11, it worked fine till now.
Thank you for trying to help me

So I'm using TMB Switcher and sometimes i get pop-up message from taskbar saying "switching from whatever algo to off" and miner is waiting for work from pool. Sometimes it resumes work in at most 1-2 minutes, but sometimes it just idles indeterminately. When I catch this I manually enable the most profitable pool, but there are times when I'm not around the miner... What can I do to prevent this idling?

[dragonmike]

Hi all
Sorry... but with the lack of general guide, I've been searching through pages and posts of this thread... and I have a few questions:

1) Do I need SGminer v5 to be able to algo-switch x11/x13 on TMB?
2) If not, I'm using PIMP v1.5 at the moment. Do I only need to add the "algorithm" : "x11mod" / "x13mod" lines under the pool settings in the conf file? Or is there another parameter to add?
3) Do I use the same ports as the main TMB x11 and x13 pools (i.e. 4440 and 5550 respectively)?

Anything else?

Many thanks!
Dragonmike

Depending on how you do the algorithm switching you could use a different version of sgminer. The algorithm switcher by 0uranos works with all versions of sgminer as it just kills the miner and starts up a different one (https://github.com/0uranos/trademybit-switcher/tree/x11). If you are using sgminer v5.0 though you have a few more options. You could use the 4010/4011 ports on TradeMyBit and have the pool itself switch algorithms for you (subject to whatever algorithm merc uses for switching) or you can use my switcher if you also have a windows machine on the same network as the miner (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=661827).

Do note that sgminer v5.0 uses the darkcoin-mod and marucoin-mod kernels and not x11mod/x13mod.

Thanks langes01x.
Just one point that I didn't get 100%: do I need sgminer v5.0 to use the 4010/4011 ports on TMB?
Ideally I'd be using the TMB autoswitcher as x11mod/x13mod give quite a boost compared to dark/maru... and I'm using PIMP on my mining rig (not too keen on having my PC running 24/7 just to be able to steer & monitor it).

With the latest sgminer v5 multi , the hashrates are also increased ;-) https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=632503.msg7478563#msg7478563 (it's using profiles now)

I'm using it now and using port 4010/4011 for x11/x13 switching and somehow if scrypt is more profit than x11/x13 it aslo switch to scrypt! I don't know how but it's switching. Maybe Merc  can explain.

I wouldn't use the 4010/4011 ports if you're not using the v5 mainly because if whatever switching software on the client side is out of sync with the 4010/4011, you'll just be trying to mine on a dead port and it'll go to your secondary.  If for instance X13 is more profitable, the 4011 port is on, but you'll see the 4010 port as dead and vice versa.

Just a note though, my miner sees the 4010 and 4011 ports both dead quite a bit, at the same time and I end up mining my secondary for a few minutes.

Sgminer v5.0 is required for using the 4010/4011 ports. One workaround for having both ports dead is put one of the profit switching ports as top priority and then a normal port for the other algorithm after so that the second port is always alive.

My switcher also requires sgminer v5.0 but only because it is faster when switching algorithms because it doesn't have to kill the miner and start a new one up. I may at some point in the future add the ability to have separate miners per algorithm to support non-v5.0 versions.

With the new updates to sgminer v5.0 there should be improvements for the hash rate using AMD driver 14.6 so it should be comparable to the other faster miner I believe (I haven't updated since the 6/6/2014 build yet though so I'm not absolutely certain).

[dragonmike]

Thanks for your answers guys, much appreciated.
I think the PiMP guys are in the process of implementing Sgminer v5, so I'll keep a close eye on it.

The new v5.0 builds on 14.6 are closer to the x11mod and x13mod standalones, but they still lag behind by 10-20% in terms of sustained MHash on my rigs.
