    4. It might be a good idea or not, but I think it will be a bit more transparent if next to the accepted shares, rejected shares you included a new count named Dev Shares then we could keep track and see if it really is a 2% what you are taking away.


    4. Yes, I am open to this idea. But simply counting the number of shares will just confuse people due to potentially different difficulties of shares. Once I figured out a right way to implement this, I will do it.

    The Developer Shares may not be exactly 2% of the Accepted Shares as the miner share difficulty is likely different from the developer share difficulty but still, it should be close.

    For a more accurate number, that accounts for the difference in difficulties, a few calculations can be introduced.

    1) "avgDevD", the average difficulty of the developers shares.
    2) "avgMnrD", the average difficulty of the miners shares.
    3) "%diffD", the percent difference in difficulty or more precisely, the % increase or decrease in the average difficulty of the miners shares compared to the average difficulty of the developers shares. It looks like this: %diffD = (avgDevD avgMnrD) avgMnrD * 100

    The "avgDevD" and "avgMnrD" values can just go into the bminer.log to lessen console clutter but with the "%diffD" value added to the console, the following equations can be used for verification and should increase confidence in the code.

    Dev Shares = 0.02 * Accepted Shares * (1 + %diffD 100)

    Miner Shares = Accepted Shares - Dev Shares

    Maybe there's an easier method but this one is not terribly complicated.

    Thank you for your suggestions. We are currently working on a major release of Bminer which will add in a new hash algorithm. We will improve Bminer based on your suggestions after that release is out.

    in response to anyone using bminer just because its more stable than dstm or vice versa. theres another option which i feel is way better than expecting the mining program's watchdog to work 100% bug free.

    https://bt.irlbtc.com/view/2071108.0

    arcefawn made a nice open source FREE watchdog script that works for several miners. its a simple script that you edit how you want to work (he has simple instructions in the cfg file.) very straight forward and works with dstm, bminer, ewbf, claymore, ccminer, ethminer, phoenix, cast xmr, and hes adding more all the time.

    his script monitors the mining console and resets the miner if it crashes. it monitors your hashrate so if its reporting lower like some gpu's are reporting too low of a hashrate, it can restart the miner. it can reload your overclocking profiles if you set it to. you can set a schedule on how often to restart the miner or the pc. you also has pool fallover support to 5 pools set in your cfg file so if you lose connection you're not mining for nothing.

    its really a great script and the guy is nice enough to give it away for free. totally worth sending him a donation and then not having to worry about your miner(s) going down

    Thanks for sharing!

    what is firmware.bin?

    Same question

    It contains data that can be updated from devs web site, for example if he decide to change the dev address and pool he can do it remotely without forcing the users to update the miner to a newer version. Its like auto updater for some parts of his miner.

    Firmware.bin stores the license information of bminer, including for example where bminer should mine its devfee.

    This miner is much more stable than the DSTM. I have 6*1080Ti 4800sol. Thanks to the developer

    I have used bminer for some time now and have had no issues with it. My impression is that it is faster than competitors, and with 6.0 far fewer rejected shares. Several people on this thread and elsewhere have done systematic tests.

    If you are running Windows, (im kinda sure) it has an 8 gpu limit by the OS. I believe 13 will work with Linux. If your using Linux and it's not working, someone else here can advise.

    Sorry but I mine with 13 gpu on win10 without any problem (except bminer).
    dtsm, ccminer, all work.

    Bminer doesn't work with 13 gpu and i don't understand why.

    It seems there is something wrong associated with your GPU 11.
    Maybe you can try to use --devices flag to test whether it is a problem specific to your GPU 11.

    You can try --devices 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,12
    to check whether bminer can run for all of the remaining GPUs.

    If so, then you may want to check your hardware cable connections of GPU 11.

    Firmware.bin stores the license information of bminer, including for example where bminer should mine its devfee.
    Thank you for resolving update issue.

    Can you please may be make a separate command line key for username/password?

    Trying mining with email on nanopool. Waited for rating above 10 of course.
    But "Incorrect password" message is present when appling pool settings.
    Unsure if my settings are correct - and the pool received email.
    Exact copy from .bat:
    -uri stratum+ssl://%addr%.%worker%:email@email.com@zec-eu1.nanopool.org:6633

    Hi, can we make bminer auto start with windows when boot up? Currently I need to open bminer-launcher.exe and reconfigure mining pool/wallet and click start to run every time windows reboot.
