hey just checking in if there is a way to monitor active difficulty? I remember you saying it was on the list. I was thinking, is it possible to set it up to open up, umm not sure on the word to use, so ill say "shell" (I grew up on dos) of bfgminer while multiminer is running it? like a right click toggle "shell mining program" and it opens a cmd window of what bfgminer (or whichever miner) is doing in realtime? I ask because I speculatively mine nonlisted coins solo etc and sometimes do switching, I have to open up a pool I am registered with to monitor the difficulty etc.   

If it is possible to get the difficulty from multiminer, is it also possible to have it listed on multiminer as "active difficulty" or "miner difficulty" or somesuch?   I find myself using just bfgminer, even without some of multiminers functions (also without donating...) for the sole reason of being able to monitor the difficulty at a glance. I understand your concerns (profitability, exchange rate etc) I am specifically interested for the purpose of speculatively mining coins that have yet to be listed.(benjamins, goat and 21 coin for example) So these coins do not have profitability or exchange rate (yet) see? I have to monitor pools or use just bfgminer (which lacks some of the elegance and sophistication of your program, like mobile monitoring and setting one device to one coin etc)   I will look into that utility posted of course. To reiterate, I am not looking for this difficulty to be used in multiminers switching decisions at all (in fact that woud be a bit detrimental) I am just wondering if it is possible to be added as a toggle to get the real time difficulty of the coin being mined displayed in an intuitive fashion etc.

I have a silly request but one that still could help me.
When say there is an update and MuMi closes and reopens all my setting go back to default like say I drag the border between my devices and my listed systems running MuMi on it so I can see all the rates and such.
Can there be something added to let it keep my settings if MuMi is restarted or closed and opened??

Thanks that is cool.
I have been pestering DualMiner by the way to hurry up and release the scrypt side info so you guys can get support added in for it.
With any luck enough of us will get them to do so sooner.
I am not sure why they are so secretive about it unless they think someone will be able to steal secrets from them somehow. 

Simple.  I do not have enough money or BTC to buy anything more expensive and better.  I like to be able to tinker and do this as a hobby as I am disabled and I cannot do much anymore.
I wish I had about 2BTC and I would get much better gear and be able to do so much more.  This allows me to at least mine some alt coins without having to purchase a $300 GPU.
I have also clocked it to 97 kh/s a where it is running stable and no errors or rejects.  It's fun.
There are lots of us out here that this is a good way to be able to get a little in the game.
I totally understand I am not going to get a real ROI but that was not my intention.
I also love using MultiMiner as it is so simple, well maintained and robust at the same time.   I really want support for the DualMiner as I like being able to control all my gear through 1 interface and remotely monitor and even send commands.  I don't get to do that with their customer software.
Thanks

Same here 

nwools, Any update on allowing coin-switch from the mobile app? Is that on your to-do list?

Another request will be the ability for the APP to restart Multiminer. Three times Multiminer has crashed on me in the past 3 weeks I have been using it and stopped mining. While this is significantly better than CGMINER which was crashing once a day wuith the same exact miner settings, the ability for the app to restart itself or restart the PC would be great.

I also marked it to start when windows starts but I dont think it is working for me but I am not sure as I barely restart my rig.

It is and is one of the next things to do.


That won't work since MultiMiner is the thing that is talking to MobileMiner - if it has crashed there is nothing on the other end.

Can you check the Event Viewer in Windows (under Applications) for any crashes for MultiMiner and post those on the issues on Github:

https://github.com/nwoolls/MultiMiner/issues?state=open

Windows Event Viewer doesn't seem to have anything useful (to me), but here ya go.  Just updated to 2.7.3.  I'll see if it crashes.  2.7.2 took a bit before it crashed.
