you should be able to add palgin's hsr miner as a generic miner, but since it didn't have api yet (planned down the track), you kind of only can do so much with it atm with AM.

hi petrike.
4 cards are installed on the PC, three of them are 1060, and one is 1080, only one card is used for testing, is it possible to do something so that all the cards are used when benchmarking

when you do benchmark, the GPU dropdown list on the Benchmark window should show one of the choice as "All Combined", would that be what you are looking for?

i can't mine Lux with AM. i can't even benchmark it.

Luxcoin/phi1612 is on Coin Tab, Online Services etc.

What i need to do on the Profit Switching tab forx exemple, i want to mine with Zpool.



If you already have algo and online services showing up properly, then you only need to make sure you enable it in the phi capable mining software of your choice that suits your hardware, refer to step 7, then you should be able to benchmark it without issues.

cheers

PS. make sure you enable the algo in the software, and enable the software in your profit profile too!

Doesn't really help. I want to be able to allow my kids to restart the machine if needed, watch cartoons, play their games, all while the miner is doing its thing in the background.
Vertcoin OCM does this (autostart at login, start minimized to System Tray, start mining automatically), and I've written a small Visual Basic application which does the same for CPU mining (I mine UIS using Yescrypt on Hash refinery with CPUminer-opt). My VB app uses a cmd wrapper to allow easy window manipulation etc.

Awesome Miner already has a System Tray icon, it makes little sense for it to not be able to minimize to System Tray - I just couldn't find the option.

Hi all,

I'm sure this has been answered before, but I couldn't find an answer for the life of me, nor did the Options scouring work.

One simple question:

How do I minimize or close Awesome Miner to System Tray?

That's all.

The reason for this is I have kids who have gotten this habit of closing active windows they don't need when they are using the PC. Yes they have their own account but I want to use Awesome Miner on their account as well - hence the need to "hide" it to System Tray.

I don't know if this will help in your situation.
I install AM remote on the other machines in my house.  Then I login to a separate account on those machines, let AM remote start and then lock the account and log on with the main user.  I control the other computers remotely with my "main" computer.  That will keep AM running unless someone reboots the remote machine.

Add url in "Online Services"


Where do i put my wallet address ? Why i can't select the specific coin?

Hey guys!

Thank you very much for creating AM! I'm currently using it on all my 3x6 rigs now.

I would like to invest further in the software. Just wanted to confirm a few things from those who already have version beyond the free one.

1. If I upgrade, would I be able to manage all 3-6 rigs for example from 1 rig that I use as my main?
2. How do I get the most of the "Balance" page in the GUI?
3. Would more pools be added in the profile switching section later on or is this something I can do on my own via the customs pools? I understand I can mine specific coins via the customs pool as I already tried this with a few coins in the past.
4. I use nvidia gpu's. If I mine via dstm and ccminer in the profiles, I get errors that the rm.exe file needs reinstalling for dstm and ccminer crashes. This only happens to 1 or the rigs. Would anyone be kind enough to point me in the right direction as to how I can fix this?
5. Are there any tips as to how I can stabilize settings so that my current AM doesn't restart miner after a few mins? I've double checked on my rules and they're conservative enough to wait for progress and such. I'm not pushing the gpu's so much too. On one of my rigs which have the same settings, I can get 8hours straight of uninterrupted mining.

Thank you! Smiley
Hi and thanks for your nice feedback.

1) The best deployment is to run Awesome Miner on a separate computer, but it also works fine to run it on one of your miners. Then you install Remote Agent on all other mining rigs. The single Awesome Miner instance will let you manage and monitor the mining of all your mining rigs in a single user interface

2) Please note that this feature is only about balance of public wallet addresses, not your pool current pool balance (yet). For details, please see:
http://awesomeminer.com/help/coinbalance.aspx

3) I try to have the most popular pools as predefined, but I will never be able to include everything. You can add your own custom pools to the profit switcher as well.

4 - 5) Do you get any output if you click the Diagnostics button in Awesome Miner, or are these softwares crashing right away without any additional information? This issue is probably outside the scope of Awesome Miner. You can also find the general troubleshooting tips here:

I am new to mining and am setting up Awesome Miner.

I don't understand how to set up the balance display.

1) in the options->balance window I need to specify the Address(public key) for the coins to be displayed.  How do I get the appropiate public key(s) to display the value of coins in my Mining Pool Hub account?

2)  When a wallet creates multiple reciving addresses do all addresses to be displayed get added to the options list or by adding one are all captured by listing one of the public keys?

3) Is there a Block Explorer wwhich works for ZenCash ?  For Monero?

4) Other than https://chainz.cryptoid.info where are good places to look for compatible block explorers?
1) Awesome Miner cannot get your current MPH balance, only after payout. I do plan to add the feature to show pool balance information as well.

2) You need to specify each public address

3 - 4) I don't have any knowledge of any other Block Explorers that works, but that isn't the same as there are none. Maybe someone else have information on this? The difficulty is that many block explorers have their own API's, and although Awesome Miner tries to be smart and support as many formats as possible - it's not possible to support all of them.

I have set up two rules according to http://www.awesomeminer.com/help/rules.aspx one that starts mining when my computer is idle for X minutes, and another rule that stops mining when the computer is no longer idle. This doesn't seem to work very reliably though, sometimes it won't stop mining even though I am using the computer.

Does anyone know the actual logic behind this function? How does Awesome Miner decide when the computer is and isn't "idle"? Is it just based on mouse or keyboard input?


I've not tried this function.  For most miners, they dedicate the whole rig to mining.  I understand what you are trying to do, but if you have AM running on that same computer, you can just click "stop" when you want to use the computer, and then the rule to start mining when the computer is idle should kick in when you are done.  Patrike may be able to give more information on what constitutes "idle" though.



Thanks for the response. After some testing, it does indeed seem like it only considers mouse and keyboard input when deciding if the machine is idle. This means that if you were to e.g. play a movie or watch a video (or in my case, stream a game to my Nvidia Shield using Gamestream), Awesome Miner will still think the computer is idle and start mining after the set interval. At least that's how I suspect the behavior is like.

Maybe the behavior could be changed to consider running a 3D application as the computer being in use? Would be amazing for those of us who run Awesome Miner on their main desktop and only want to mine when the computer isn't in use.
Awesome Miner requests the "idle time" information from Windows. It's based on mouse/keyboard input. Awesome Miner cannot detect activities like playing movies and so on right now.

Hi,

First of all, I'm spending about 70 hours a week on Awesome Miner and serving all customer questions via mail. There is no need to be rude and call people lazy, so please stop doing that - thanks!

Second, due to the large number of questions about getting right now, I've been prioritizing all customers with a paid license that ask specific questions via mail. Except for the last week, I've also been very active in this thread trying to answer as many questions and requests as I possibly can. Because the popularity of mining has increased a lot recently, it's difficult for me to keep up. Also, in many cases the answers can be found on in the FAQ or Help section on the web page.

Third, you can add any algorithm or mining software to Awesome Miner.

Please don't get me wrong here - I appreciate all feedback and question. But let's work together on having a nice discussion to resolve any issues or missing feature. Thanks!


Patrike,

I've been working in the software industry for more than 20 years so I have some experience in this field. IMO, you are doing a wonderful job in both coding and supporting the application.

Please just ignore those immature comments, and keep doing what you are doing! I for one, will be upgrading my license & the cloud license to the next level shortly!  Grin

Your efforts are much appreciated!

I remember reading a post on here that said you can copy over the configuration file and not have to start again updating everything in awesome miner.  I am setting up my new dedicated mining computer and just tried this and nothing carried over.  Can someone please explain how to do it?  I went to appdata local awesome miner on current machine and copied to new machine, went to roaming as well and copied to new machine and awesomeminer still opens blank.
Awesome Miner stores all configuration in the file ConfigData.xml located in the folder %appdata%\AwesomeMiner.

To copy the configuration from one computer to another, make sure that Awesome Miner isn't running and copy the file ConfigData.xml to the other computer.

We all lost hours instead of having all coins and algos added in this paid software. If the developer is so busy and lazy pay an Indian to add the coins and to export the config files. It is being asked for weeks and developers do not care. Add all algos and coins.

For the past days persons that mined PHI made 30% more money and phi is the most mined and most profitable algo on all pools.

Today phi is most profitable and users are not able to add it or are unaware about money they lost and tomorrow will be another algo that is missing, all because the developers do not care or want to pay $100 to someone and create the conflig  files for all algos and coins.

We are all tired of lazy developers from the team that do not care when we all loose thousands of dollars every day.

I think that most people that has been around in this thread for a while do know that I answer many questions here and work hard on making as many people as possible happy.

Second, due to the large number of questions about getting right now, I've been prioritizing all customers with a paid license that ask specific questions via mail. Except for the last week, I've also been very active in this thread trying to answer as many questions and requests as I possibly can.

Third, you can add any algorithm or mining software to Awesome Miner. In some cases you need to many add new algorithms to Options dialog, Algorithms section.

Please don't get me wrong here - I appreciate all feedback and questions. But let's work together on having a nice discussion to resolve any issues or missing feature. Thanks!
