Yeah, it's Scrypt-N now, and we're still on X11
Thank you NiceHash Devs, i just noticed you did a quick software release and now the front page is displaying the most profitable algo correctly to what the stratum is showing...
Yes fixed now.

Going back to the CGWatcher question, It works perfectly fine for me, but I am not letting it launch sgminer. I have sgminer.exe and the conf file defined in the current profile, but i did not create the conf file with CGWatcher. CGWatcher strips the pool-algo entry from the conf file and adds pool priority.
Instead, Launch CGwatcher pointed to the sgminer.exe and conf, and then launch sgminer out of a bat file that points to the conf file separate. CGWatcher *should* detect that its mining and being to display stats.

Wait 2 more days and a new CGwatcher should be available with support for this new sgminer

is the site displaying the wrong most profitable algo or is the stratum not waking up the correct port for that algo, i am hashing X11 but Scrrypt-N shows as the most profitable

Question for nicehash devs:
Is it possible that the server stores the fx=x settings, even after the user has removed them from the conf? Reason I ask is I have played around with it, but decided against it and removed it... now my miner is not hashing the most profitable according to what's on the Nicehash frontpage. Do I need to 'reset' my fx=x settings to default manually?

If it's Keccak the guy already said it was a known issue currently.

Hi there,
What is the BTC per MH/s profitability with MultiAlgo mining ?
I am currently mining Multi Scrypt on CleverMining using BAMT from a USB Stick and would like to know how profitable it is to switch to MultiAlgo on NiceHash and how to set up my BAMT to be able to mine MultiAlgo..
I hope it is easy as configuring my config file in BAMT and restart my CGMINER ?
Would someone be so kind and write a STEP by STEP instruction how to set up everything ?
Thanks for any info..

bullus you can use one sgminer instance, you need to apply a different "hamsi-expand-big" setting for the card that you want marucoin-mod-old on.
In theory it should look like [FOR EXAMPLE]
"hamsi-expand-big" : "1,1,4,1,1" for these cards "290,290,280,290,290"
I think this will still work and should work all in the same instance.
In theory it should look like [FOR EXAMPLE]
"hamsi-expand-big" : "1,1,4,1,1" for these cards "290,290,280,290,290"
I think this will still work and should work all in the same instance.
Gonna test it and report back.
Be sure that you're using marucoin-mod, as the "hamsi-expand-big" : "4" will effectively yield the same results as marucoin-mod-old, in theory.
I tried to use "hamsi-expand-big" : "4" or "1" but still got hw errors on my 6970. So didn't help, but thanks anyway.

Bwah, this is antoher sgminer bug in stratum implementation regarding connection to a live pool with invalid credentials. Obviously what sometimes happens is that sgminer tries to use work from pool which is alive but rejected auth, and then sends share to the other (alive and successfully authenticated pool) which has different algorithm, that's why there are some (but very rare) rejected shares due to this bug. Reporting issue to github right now.
This may/may not be confirmed by the .conf file above, as I left "queue" : "3" as a test-flag to see if I could keep work flowing through the cards to avoid the SICK/DEAD one at the last. The thought process was to already have a work item staged so that it could never encounter idle threads. This may have just proved positive that if you are queueing work for a certain algorithm, and your pool/algo flips, it's still possible the cards are dispensing old work from an old algo to a new pool/algo/port. Come to think of it, let me check my logs.
Yep, this is work queue issue. You must set "queue" : "0", as 2 other rigs with this setting don't encounter the issue
EDIT: adding in "extranonce-subscription" : true and will report back if there's smoother algo-flipping.

kenshiro, can you have your dev check out what's up with this? queue: 0
Crazy, across 3 rigs, each is mining nh x13 but all are mining different coindiffs simultaneously.
June 16, 2014, 02:10:50 AM
meh, everything's fucky. Keccak says it's #1 on the site, but 3338 isn't even distributing work. I'll wait til Kenshiro wakes up.
Good morning
... yeah, Keccak proxy is not playing well, have to wait for nicehashdev to also wake up Something's definitely up. Usually with X13, I get shares accepted every few seconds. Right now it's just sitting there for 2-3 minutes at a time between shares.
This is OK - it depends on current order's pool difficulty ... if it is higher you'll get shares less frequently.
This is happening pretty frequently... is there a reason? Certain ports are going Alive sporadically, and then quitting before anything happens.

Messages about "testing stability" -> "interrupted" are OK. We have all 43xx ports open and are rejecting connection at auth phase ... there is nothing wrong with this.
Not only that, but pretty consistently now, when it switches to x11 stratum for Nicehash, all shares get rejected below target. This has to be a faulty stratum implementation by Nicehash, as it was hashing on x11 fine last night. I think what we are witnessing is a coin-switch and it sparks up their stratum for a second then goes immediately dead since x11 is not the most profitable algo to mine.
Bwah, this is antoher sgminer bug in stratum implementation regarding connection to a live pool with invalid credentials. Obviously what sometimes happens is that sgminer tries to use work from pool which is alive but rejected auth, and then sends share to the other (alive and successfully authenticated pool) which has different algorithm, that's why there are some (but very rare) rejected shares due to this bug.

Plz can you post your 290x conf to test it? I've been watching the thread closely.. But I'm not sure if I missed some changes in your config..
Thank you in advance.

bullus you can use one sgminer instance, you need to apply a different "hamsi-expand-big" setting for the card that you want marucoin-mod-old on.
In theory it should look like [FOR EXAMPLE]
"hamsi-expand-big" : "1,1,4,1,1" for these cards "290,290,280,290,290"
I think this will still work and should work all in the same instance.

Gonna test it and report back.

meh, everything's fucky. Keccak says it's #1 on the site, but 3338 isn't even distributing work. I'll wait til Kenshiro wakes up.

Something's definitely up. Usually with X13, I get shares accepted every few seconds. Right now it's just sitting there for 2-3 minutes at a time between shares.
Earlier I had it submitting x13 shares to the x11 stratum apparently, and they were being rejected.
Do you have "disable-rejecting" : true?
Mine is not specified.
Not specified here. Now we have something else odd. The Nicehash homepage says Keccak is currently the most profitable, yet my miner has been switched to X11 instead.
Are you using the new password factoring?
Code:
f0=2.95;f2=1.45;f3=12.2;f4=10.1;f5=1410
No... but the default should automatically switch me to Keccak right?
