Two identical machines
Even hash rates are within a few MH/s

And yet AMiner, decides to put one on Lara2 for days while the other switches to most profitable as intended

https://i.imgur.com/t8gF99T.jpg

The updated online services show lara as most profitable - but how can it be when the identical set up on the right shows it further down.

The whole software is one big mess as far as I can make out.
How can two identical machines, cards, hashrates, miners, pools everything be showing different profits and mining different alogs.
I'd expect some shenanigans but it's more likely to be incompetence.

Not sure if it's even worth my time trouble shooting going on the past 20 pages of this thread.
But I did reinstall latest miner on both - delete and redo the miners. rerun the benchmarks and yet this still occurs.

So just a heads up - you could very likely be chucking money away, unless you have two machines to check what this software is doing.

Later, and mine safley.



I have the same problem, with 2 identical machines with identical GPUs and with identical statistics settings (refresh time is 2 minutes and whattomine selected) looks exactly like in your picture, with very big difference from one rig to the other, and the difference is very big, like 50% more for a different pool. It is strange and not logical.

Also everyone must check real hash rate recorded by the pool and also actual payment because it is a very big difference in the amount you are being paid (you get a lot less, and your hash power goes somewhere) compared to what you see in HashRate in AwesomeMiner (not talking about dolars that you can say it depends on exchage rate when converted, I am talkign about constant hasrate that varies less than 1% in 24 hours and you see it going down a lot on pool recordings.

What do you think, patrike about the 2 issues from above ?


Re Patricks post, yes both on the same time rates and when looking at miner details they showed several days of the totally wrong hash rates being pulled from ahashpool, resulting in miner wasting my time on low profit coins.

I just hand no confidence at all in this software switching, I could use it for single coins but I'd rather just use a batch script for that. So instead of labouring the point and trying to find the issue wasting both our time I'll just move on and use something else.
Good luck with it, I'm sure it's ok when it works correctly, but it's just a constant source of frustration for me,
Reminds me of Calibre ebook management, where its all programer, and no thought to user interface or design.
Laters, and enjoy your mining.

Hi,
Want to report a small bug on premium edition...
Cant save more than 1 GPU settings at same time, although on the web page says one can save several GPU settings, as per annexed image.

Am I doing something wrong? I select both cards and go to button "profile" and select "save as..."

Thanks,

Hello Patrike,
I noticed something a little annoying regarding coins statistics. If i set AM to use 24h average statistics to decide what to mine, then the price of coins displayed in the bottom bar change to an average price on the last 24h too.
Would it be possible to have the coins listed in bottom bar to always list the current price even if i use 24h average for profit switching ?
That's a good point. This will consider making this change.

Hello Patrike,
Just for remember, could you please look at this small issue regarding statistics ?
I have a note about this already, so it has not been forgotten. I'm simply getting a very large number of questions and feature requests these days, so some feature request will take a little time to get implemented. I do however appreciate all feedback and comments, so let's continue working together on making the software even better. Thanks!

Glad to see you can switch between managed and profit miners now easily however there is an annoying issue.  When you switch between them it doesn't remember all of the miner's properties, for example when you switch from profit to managed the mining software and pool are not what they were the last time it was a managed miner.  I really expected that it would be able to switch between the two seamlessly without having to redo a lot of properties (actually without having to redo any properties).
Thanks for your comments. I think the concept should be combined with the Managed Templates as well. So if you apply a template to a Managed Profit Miner it could turn into a Managed Miner with the defined settings.

Already today you can use the Templates to be able to restore settings to a miner that you converted back to a Managed Miner, but it's a two-step thing that could be optimized.

First of all, please verify if you use the same statistics time period on both systems. Quite recently the default value was change from "Current" to "24 hour Average" in Options dialog, Statistics section. If this setting is different, the numbers you see will not be the same.

If there is a specific profit switcher deceision you want to investigate, then the right click on the miner and select the View Details dialog instead, where you can see the actual pool priorities based on profitability.

Hey patrike


I have another thought i don't think any one has asked for yet or may have there is a lot of pages to go though for Awesome Miner .

to save you time can you make a add on or add some kind of template that can update to any custom miner we want to add with full states some like the Generic miner but improved to beadle to add the full miner there a lot of mew soft ware miners coming out that are looking like they will blow a way CM and a few others over time. plus you do some amazing things , I'm not saying that to get you do some thing  , you do, the thing that still supersizes me the most is the updates you up pump out an don't ask for more money that a lone keeps me using AM  an telling others about how good AM is . not that i won't pay i will ... Again I'm not kissing ass to get to some thing it's the truth until it's not.
Thanks for your feedback. What Awesome Miner should do is probably to let you define more details, including the actual software path and handle automatic upload, for any custom Managed Software you define. I guess this is related to what you ask for.

Hi - my miners seem to be stuck in dual mining ETH+PASC.  I am trying to get them to only do ETH...  I've disabled the secondary coins/algorithms, but it still keeps dual mining...In the profit switching profile the only thing visible is Ethereum...  Any suggestions?  My only solution so far is to use the 1/2/3/4/5/6 2x to get teh GPU to get Claymore to do ETH only.

Not sure how it's calculating ETH+PASC 17.2 + 517Mh is better than 30MH/s ETH only...

Thanks in advance,

Carlos

For me, DSTM 0.5.8, miner kills itself a few seconds after it launches
Tested on Miningpoolhub


make sure this installed https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=48145

Sorry in advance  Grin Grin Grin I know it's tacky.

Is there a way to update the little icons for the coins? Like a file we can add jpegs to or something. The gold ? coin is like half my screen lol.

Anybody else having problems benchmarking Neoscrypt?

Whenever I run a precise benchmark and with 'all combined' selected, the miner app will start and the benchmark will run, but I'm getting values of 0. When the benchmark finishes, the section 'Benchmark result' remains blank.

With Neoscrypt often the top coin to mine in MPH, AwesomeMiner will not switch because it doesn't think the algo will produce the most hashing power.

This also happens to mine only when benchmarking though, I just take the number when it's mining and add it to the profile manually with a right click. It mines for me just fine for me, shows actual total there.

Awesome Miner development version 4.3.4 (preview of 4.4)

In addition to preview preview 4.3.3:
- Claymore Dual Ethereum Miner 10.4
- Correction to miner specific worker name not being passed correctly in profit switching scenarios

Important: Remote Agent must be upgraded as well. Once upgrading to this version, you cannot downgrade to an older version without all configuration being lost.

More important: There is unfortunately a bug in the upgrade mechanism for the Awesome Miner main application in development preview 4.3.3. If you have this development preview, you may need to manually use the MSI file below to upgrade the Awesome Miner main application. The Remote Agent should still be possible to upgrade automatically. Sorry for the inconvenience.

The get access to development versions, open the Options dialog in Awesome Miner. In the General section, enable Check for development versions. Then go to the Menu and click Check for updates.

Direct download links:

Thanks for listening to our suggestions and bug reports, that last update really improved the program. I finally only need one miner for most of my rigs, which makes things a little easier to manage.

I would be nice if in the "online services" tab it had "Enabled Services" and "Displayed Services"

Then you could have a column which showed if that pool/algo was enabled.


I like to disable / limit the number of pools so it does not switch as much, but i'm also interested what those pools are saying their profit is.

--user s3c70r , even if in the properties I have "Add to workername" checked, it doesn't pass the workername to command line.

We should read --user s3c70r.Rig02

Miningpoolhub doesnt allow connections without a login followed by a workername. ( login.Workername )

I have a s3c70r.Rig01 defined globally in the profit switching section of options to work around the bug.

Please fix ASAP.
I will investigate. Thanks for reporting

AM isn’t passing my worker names to Nicehash anymore either.
