Does anyone know where I can get a question about this version of ethminer answered? I am trying to use the API to manage my miners remotely ethminer is not responding. Thanks.
And if anyone is interested, I have tested Claymore and ethminer extensively and I believe ethminer is actually better than Claymores when you do not have to pay the dev fee to Claymore. I base this conclusion on the reported results from the pool and not on the hash rate displayed by the miner. The shares submitted to the pools by the two miners is about the same but when you subtract the dev fee, ethminer comes out slightly ahead.
There are some variations depending on the pool and coin but in general, this is the result I have determined.
Genoil's ethminer does not have an AP for remote management as far as I can tell, but the newer version does. It works with Claymores ethman.exe but I canot get it to work with my own code. The ethminer API is supposed to be compatible with claymores miner but my TCP client works fine with Claymores, not with ethminer.
Too much info. I was just hoping to find someone can tell me how to make the API work.
