Can someone help with intensity changes for ccminer

What I've tried: Go to Managed Software > CcMiner 2.2.4 found the line for the algo I wish to modify (Phi) entered --intensity=20 in the User defined Command Line argument I've also tried -i 20

Result, miner starts up, and within seconds the window disappears...

when looking at the logs, I can see that the default i 25 is in the command line argument, along with the values I input into the Managed Software section.


Help? please.

If you add it to the Managed Miner or to the Pool custom command lines does it override the default?

I haven't tried that, because that would apply it to any miner/algo. I just need it for one specific case

Right, I'm trying to help you diagnose the problem so we can see if it's a bug that Patrike needs to address.



but your solution/advice is not what I need or want.


Background: In Awesome Miner > Managed Software, there exists the ability to add a "User Defined command line argument"  for each supported Algo of the mining software. (in my case Ccminer/Phi)

Expectation:adding -i 20 or --intensity=20 to the "User Defined command line argument" results in CcMiner using an intensity of 20 for Phi algo

Result: CcMiner launches and closes within seconds, red error message shown too quickly to read. Log shows that the default -i 25 is included in the command line argument along with my user defined -i 20, causing CcMiner to crash

Resolution: user defined intensity should replace the default intensity



His suggestion does work - if you're using a pool that is phi only, or a multi-algo pool with a phi specific port, just set the intensity at either the pool or multi-algo pool.

That said, I believe you're trying to do as the picture shows here (set user defined command line arguments) at the miner level. If that isn't working then it indeed is a bug. https://www.awesomeminer.com/help/managedsoftware.aspx
