Just updated MacMiner to version 1.4.9 on my iMac, running OS X Version 10.8.4. I'm using bfgminer on a single Block Erupter USB miner.

It works fine with the pool (btcguild), but the miner window shows a very low hash rate (~5 MH/s when it should be 330 MH/s), and shows a very low accepted block number. On the btcguild web site, all is well for hash rate and accepted block numbers.

I had no problem with the previous version.

Thanks,

Thanks, that's interesting - I had an email from someone reporting slower speeds on the latest version but it changed when they set intensity manually - now I'm curious as to whether bfgminer 3.2 is just reporting the wrong speed. I'm quite certain it's an issue with 3.2 though and I intend to report back to luke jr and hopefully get this figured out.

The API issue is mystifying me slightly, I'm not sure whether I'll be able to fix it till I get another USB miner. Something must be wrong with my 'for' loop. I would spring for a block erupter but I'm pretty broke till payday!
