[Awesome Miner] - Powerful Windows GUI to manage and monitor up to 200000 miners

Awesome Miner version 4.4.5 (Development Preview of 4.5)
- Coin exchange rates in the status bar will always use the current exchange rate, independent from the coin statistics settings in the Options dialog
Any feedback is of course appreciated. Thanks!

Exchange rates for custom coins are now no longer displayed. I've added Garlicoin as custom coin, and previously it would list the current exchange rate. With the new version, it's displayed as "0,00".

Thanks for letting me know. Is it a coin where you manually entered profitability information or what is the source of the exchange rate?

Edit: I was able to reproduce the issue on a user defined coin with manually entered exchange rate. Please let me know if you found another scenario as well.

It's a coin with manually added profitability information.

Current difficulty and price can be seen here: https://garli.co.in/

Would be great if it could optionally pull this from the explorer - Awesome Miner is already able to pull my balance from this explorer using the API, so I guess it shouldn't be too difficult.

hello, I'm hoping someone can help me.

I have an interesting/unique situation (I think) where I need to run two instances of a customized ccminer at the same time on one rig. Reason being: the ccminer variant only supports a max of 8 GPUs (I have 12)

I'm able to run two instances of the miner in command prompt windows (specifying which GPUs to use).


The issue I have is that within Awesome Miner, when I created the managed software, I set it to full compatibility and compatible software: CcMiner.  However, I cannot change the API port, which results in one of the ccminer instances being detected as being offline.


How can I specify a custom API port to be used? I can do this on the command line, will Awesome Miner pick this up? it doesn't seem like it would.

Thanks in advance.

Thank you Patrike for the new version and improvements.
 
Can you add d3pool to managed profit switcher ? If you check statistics d3pool is always with 25% more profitable than the next most profitable pool, is there an error ?

Is there a way to see for each pool the hashrate for each worker i have that is identified with ID field and using the miners array from yiimp pools API ? If we can compare rates from pool to the ones from miners we can identify if there is an issue with the pool or with the version we have for the miner that can report an inflated rate for various reasons you might imagine.

Thanks again for the new version.

Thanks for your feedback.

I was thinking about adding D3Pool to the profit switcher as well, but right now it only has a single X11 pool. This pools is mainly intended for ASIC miners, while the Managed Profit Switching pools are mainly intended for CPU and GPU mining, where X11 isn't so popular.

Right now it's not possible to see the pool hashrate. With this version, Awesome Miner starts to integrate more with the pools to display the pool balance, and the next step would then be to improve the integration to also include hashrates. I fully agree that this feature would make sense.

But if it is intended for ASICS, it means the statistics are wrong ? because it always shows 25% more than the most profitable pool.

Note: The Mining Dutch pool should be configured with a worker name. The label in the Awesome Miner user interface currently state "Bitcoin address", which is incorrect. Please enter your Mining Dutch worker name in this field. This UI issue will soon be corrected .

You are amazing! Thank you! Time to get to work for me!

Thanks in advance.

Is this software fully command line and API compatible with ccminer? If that's the case, Awesome Miner will start it in a similar way as Ccminer, and automatically pass "-b 0.0.0.0:4035" to the command line to enable the API (where 4035 is a made up port number that Awesome Miner later will connect to). If you start another instance, Awesome Miner will make sure that each instance get a unique port number. You cannot tell Awesome Miner which port to use, but there shouldn't be a need for that.

Are there any differences compared to Ccminer for the API command line? If you use the Diagnostics button in the toolbar, does the command line look correct for both ccminer instances?

Is there a way to have any non profit pool switching to start happening instead of going for profit only?

I'd like to be able to have the option to:

switch pools every x hours
lowest diff pool switching
or any other stat that can be pulled from what to mine?

Not sure if this is the case or not. I can set up profiles but they arent automated and you dont have the ability to bounce around pools like you can the antminers in awesome miner.

I just noticed that in some of the statistics modes, it's showing way too high values for D3Pool X11. I will correct that. It should of course be 1000 times less and be about the same level as the other X11 pools. Thanks for pointing that out.

I just wanted to make sure it would work before moving it from cmnd line to AM.

it's a fork of Ccminer 2.2.4 so there shouldn't be any api differences

You are amazing! Thank you! Time to get to work for me!

I just pushed the updated API documentation to the web site. Please let me know if any additional clarifications are required.

On Development Preview of 4.5, seems like BMiner takes a lot longer to get up to top speed than what the benchmarks will allow time for (even precise).  To get the right speed for comparison, leave it running on a miner and save the hashrate.  So far, it is indeed faster than Excavator by a noticable margin.

4.25KH/s on a rig with Excavator
4.47KH/s on the same rig with BMiner

Ran for about 10 minutes before I saw the speed level out.

Awesome Miner version 4.4.6 (Development Preview of 4.5)

This is a smaller update to the previous development release, addressing a few points discussed earlier. This update also adds Ccminer KlausT.

Good point. I will do a bit more tests around this and maybe increase the benchmarking time for Bminer.

Thanks for the quick update, the coin exchange display in the status bar works now for me.

Hey using Bminer or dstm miner on a ssl port with AM never works for me , below is showing what Bminer does on a ssl port using it with AM if i use it with out AM it works fine with both Bminer and dstm miner on a ssl port/pool an that's on any ssl port/pool, i have tried..other wise on a normal port/pool Bminer or dstm miner works great with AM .

[hashrefinery]

Is it currently possible to add any sort of profit weighting to pools to account for fees, or is that already done, and if not can I suggest it.

I will use scrypt and a couple of pools to explain what I mean.

litecoinpool.org : this is a pps pool that pays 102% : Profit value 102
ahashpool.com : current fees are 1% : Profit Value 99
zpool : current fees 1.25% + 5% : Profit Value 93.75
Nicehash : current fees 3-4% : Profit Value 96.5

This would allow the profit switcher to take into account the actual returns before deciding if/when to switch

So for example litecoinpool is paying 0.002050 and I have it set to only change on a 5% difference, the current profit switcher may see zpool at 0.002173 which is 6% more, but the reality is that's a losing pool switch.

TIA

I am going in and modifying my install based off your question and the following answer. I see zpool lists fees from 1.25-2, where is the 5% coming from?

edit - is the 5% the transfer fee?

any know the fees for hashrefinery and MPH? I believe its 1.25% and 1.10% (.9 for the fee and .2 for the auto-exchange)

For yiimp based pools, exchange and mining fees are already factored into the rates provided by the API.

Exchange fee is deducted from the exchange price here:

https://github.com/tpruvot/yiimp/blob/e569b5774903b6eaaeb36ac28b0a4d3b1716b794/web/yaamp/core/backend/markets.php#L71

Pool feel is deducted when the API calculates prices here:

https://github.com/tpruvot/yiimp/blob/e569b5774903b6eaaeb36ac28b0a4d3b1716b794/web/yaamp/modules/api/ApiController.php#L50

Obviously this only applies to yiimp pools. I don't know the behaviour of other pool software.
