I Know i used to load in 5 or 6 pools using SSH with the balance command on my S3 and have the same issue some pools just didn't work, even tried one time to add more to UI in the S3 by using that S1 guide didn't happen .

Then this program came a long i use it from time to time but it doesn't do enough for me etc or much is being done with it because of why or what you said , I'm being nice or tiring to.

Correct. The pools will work/rotate on my S7 if there are 4 (maybe 5) or fewer configured, if you ssh into the machine and change the config file manually. It's just if you get past 4 (or 5...I can't remember which), one or more of them doesn't make it past the init stage. You can pretty much tell from the miner status window which ones are going to fail when their time comes in the rotation -- the ones showing no work received from the pool at the very start... So there has to be something more involved than just adding "rotate" : "xx" to the .conf when you have 5/5+ pools configured. It's possible some bitmain script elsewhere could be tweaked to make it work, but I haven't found a solution anywhere on google. And it's not for lack of trying. All the pools beyond the 3 allowed in the config screen, if manually entered, do show up in the antminer's miner status window just fine. Whether or not the bitmain processes/scripts running in the background expect status results for so many additional pools beyond 3 is another matter, I think...

At least with this automatic pool switcher, I can do what I want (mostly) without any need to ssh and change stuff using vi editor inside the miner. I can queue up 5+ pools of the same or different sha256 coin types, set their mining duration separately, and I get a nice little status window that scrolls by as it works. I would donate if the author provided rotation in minutes rather than whole number hours, as well as a save/reload config option. Internal logic that checked difficulty and profitability (perhaps of those in a savable list which are check-boxed active), and rotated based on that....well, I would donate quite a bit more. =]
