Hi.
Great application,
Thank you  Smiley
but your new website statistics does not seem to like more than 7 cards.

And i think the live statistics page need a total some where. Like total earning and speed of all the miners.
Thanks for reporting these.
Dashboard bug - team is already working on a fix
Adding totals - We sure will, with additional info stats and functionality...we have a whole roadmap for the dashboard, right after we stabilize it  Smiley

Bug is now fixed - please check on your end and let us know if everything is ok  Smiley

hi guys.

Do you have any plans on adding integrated GPUs to your app's supported list.
I have a laptop with Intel HD Graphics 520 on idle most of the time and this isnt detected as a GPU. Although other miners do see it as one.
Winminer currently detects it as a MS Basic Render Driver.

Thanks

Just curious - with the other miners, is it actually profitable? I know it's low power, but....
TBH I wouldn't call it profitable :-) if any at all. BUT, since the machine is on all the time anyway and does little most of the time it, it definitely doesn't hurt making it do something. this probably makes more than interest from your savings account. thats unless you have thousands on it :-)

Thats how i see it anyway, i might be totally wrong though

I think I'm sold on WinMiner.  I am curious why my cards are more profitable vs Nice Hash by a considerable amount.  Anyone have any thoughts on why I would be getting 30-50% more (ie.  Have a rig of 970s running stock that gets 1.09 on nice hash vs 1.40-2.00 on WinMiner)?  

Nicehash is a hashrate market, so you get paid what others offer for certain algo. Here you get paid for actual currency and its current exchange rate

Some additional feedback: just FYI, the past two days the miner has shut down overnight and requires a full shutdown and restart to resume. I am running the latest version, Windows 10, two dual-xeon boxes, CPU only, mining XMR...

EDIT/UPDATE: It just happened again. It (the app) stopped reporting hashrate but was still using my CPUs as if it were running at 100%. And the "Live" page showed no hashrate running for my account. Deleting app for now. Need better assurance that my hashrate is not being lost and/or hijacked and a more detailed explanation why it must be run in admin mode.

Really sorry for your inconvenience, would be great if you can send us the logs so we can get to the bottom of this and fix. Without the logs it’s really hard to put a finger on the possible cause (dual CPU or operating system compatibility could be on the list to name a few..), were you mining in “all coins” mode or did you choose specific coins?

What happens when WinMiner is down
We have built WinMiner in a way that in a case it ceases to operate (e.g. a crash) for whatever reason, the miners can continue to work and they do so for the benefit of the user. Therefore, in the situation you described, your CPU was working to increase your profits even though WinMiner was not running.
(BTW You don’t have to take our word for it, you can simply run a test, kill WInMiner, then let the miners continue to work and check the balance after 10 minutes)

Live dashboard
This was released a few days ago and like any infant has to walk before it can run J That means that there are still issues in its operation and sometimes it may report an online rig as being offline. We are ironing out the issues with the dashboard but in the meantime, when in doubt check the WinMiner app window for the real data. 

Admin mode
Some miners require admin mode to be run effectively, so to get best performance we recommend running WinMiner in admin mode.

Hope this addresses your ques​tions and concerns - let us know if you need further clarifications.

Looking forward to having you back on WinMiner  Smiley

I reported this a few days ago.  I was told that as your account ages, the status page starts updating less frequently (like 1-2 hours).  It freaked me out as well.  They say they're working on improving it.

I test your WinMiner apllication around 2 weeks... I like active developement on your product and support... But it need some improvement in few things...
1.) REQUEST: Profitability switching isn't good enought. For example if I mine single coin(XMR) all day I earn around 20-70% more $ per day compared to automatic option... Coin swithcing is done to fast and this lead to losing money, because miner start mining and then switch to other coin... There must be done some application options like:
-General coin option(For all coins) to set periodic benchmarking. For example checkbox for automatic(your logic) or custom(user can configure timeout in minutes/hours). For me 1x per day is enought.
-General coin option(For all coins) to set periodic profitability check(Check which coin profit is best). For example checkbox for automatic(your logic) or custom(user can configure timeout in minutes/hours). For me 1x per 2/4 hours is enought.
-General coin option(For all coins) to set profitability current/average of coin. For example checkbox for current(check which coin is curently best profitable by price, difficulty...) or average. On average must be two options automatic(your logic) or custom(user can configure hours/days which are used to calculate average of coin profitability).
-General coin option(For all coins) to set minimum difference in coin price beetwen old mining coin and new minning coin to switchower. For example checkbox for automatic(your logic) or custom(user can configure earning price difference in currency which have selected in settings  example 1.50 USD).

2.) BUG: I see that service WinMiner_Service stop sometime(version 1.74x maybe this is fixed in 1.75 it is to soon to tell)... Maybe add some watchdog to check if service is running and start/restart it if not running but must running...

3.) REQUEST: Option to disable automatic update

4.) REQUEST: Settings for EACH coin miner intensity settings. For example checkbox for automatic(your logic) or custom(user set for XMR Intensity=18 all other are auto)

5.) BUG: WinMiner update, kill WinMiner but leave icon in tray. You need to clean them else there are a lot of WinMiner icons...

6.) BUG: Live statistic usualy need refresh on first open to show data of miners.

7.) Add some other coins like FTC, SIB ...

8.) BUG: When I have enabled mining oly XMR coin sometime I receive message that there is no job from server...

9.) BUG: Live statistic - Removing Miner do not work. It show "Please wait" and then is remove button back. Logout/Login do not help.

10.) BUG Whe exit application(Tray icon is also removed) Service still running.

The harder your life is the more meaning it has.
The interface has been improved very much I love it but can you add webmoney or litecoin payment method ?

Here are a couple of questions for you, so we can get the best results for you and for all WinMiner users:
(1) Why do you prefer tpruvot  to krnlx - (performace wise they are about the same) - is there other reason we should be aware of?
(2) When using tpruvot  what intensity and/or other command line improvements do you use?
(3) Do you use afterburner or similar tools?
(4) Which brand and specific model is your 1080ti?

1) I get 55MH/s with my 1080Ti's with ccminer-tpruvot 2.2, I get 50MH/s with krnlx.

2) Typically just setting max intensity.

3) I use Afterburner to control fans, but not really for overclocking.

4) I have EVGA cards, some SC2's and some FTW3's.

Hi:
I have started using your combo program (dashboard, revenue analyzer, switcher, miners, pool, & exchange  Grin) a couple of days ago, so far it has been an exciting experience, it's good, a lot of future, I would like to understand a little better how it works, and I will report a couple of problems I have had.
I have been trying it on my Gaming PC/Part Time Miner, Core i5-7500+RX580 8GB+RX560 4GB, I could use it on my mining Rigs, and recommend it to my Gaming Community, but I need to solve the following.
First my doubts:
- How do you calculate the revenue per day and I guess the currently mined coin?, I mean, do you consider the current price?, do you sell the coins at that price upon reaching certain amount?/or time?.
Problems:
- Only minor ones now, major ones got solved before I finished this message.
- WinMIner.com Live Dashboard got offline message if not used after a while, I have to open again the window from the program.
- GPUs do not start to work in some occasions, they stay idle when restarted after stopping the mining process to do some other thing, I will try to get the cause and report back.
Ideas:
- As some have already suggested, dcri control and voltage control are critical, my RX580 needs a 38 dcri and my RX560 a 24 dcri, so they are not working at their best now while mining EXP.
- I usually undervolt my cards on the Miner, now I am using AB with WinMiner, with the RX580 the OC is ok, the undervolt only reachs -96mV, so its running hot or/and noisy now, the RX560 is not usually a problem as it doesn't consume too much power, but it can not be undervolted on AB and if OC it never reaches the specified clocks, so I got only 2 MH/s, maybe a driver, AB version, etc., problem, but anyway, it could be great to add a way to control dcri, voltage and clocks in WinMiner, obviously while keeping it friendly for any casual Miner/Gamer.
Great work, keep at it,
Carlos

Welcome aboard!
(1) Compliments - Thank you very much. It is a A LOT of work but its so rewarding with such great users and feedback  Smiley

(2) Doubts - WinMiner is all about simplicity and accessibility - to accomplish that we set its base currency to USD, and we exchange coins found to USD to make sure a balance displayed is guaranteed and not subject to fluctuations. Following users requests we are planning on allowing users to set a different base currency of their choice.

(3) Problems -
      - Glad to hear that the major ones are history
      - Dashboard going offline after a while - we will definitely look into this
      - GPUs idle in certain occasions - please provide more info of when and how this happens so we can better address it.

(4) Ideas -
      - dcri, voltage control and AB per GPU - we are giving some serious thoughts on how to give more control to those who wish to custom the experience and performance.

Hope this addresses the points.

Thanks again for your support and feedback!

That was a fast reply, thanks Smiley

Is there any plans for a app (Android) ?
so you can monitor your rigs away from home, and see statistics.
Or a alert for you "rigs" on the dashboard ? Main thing, for me at least. Is a way to monitor or get alerts when a machine goes offline or stops mining.

There are other ways to achieve this , but having it all in one app would be a big plus i think.

Mobile app - indeed on the plans  Smiley

yeah, I noticed that you updated the skunk miner.  not sure what you did. it looks like the same miner version, but now getting about 10% better rates.
I would still rather have the tpruvot ccminer 2.2 rather than krnlx.
