Does anyone else have an issue with MiningDutch and the skein algorithm?
If I start Awesome Miner and I have all of my pools enabled in the profit switching menu, then Awesome Miner switches to Mining Dutch to mine the skein algo, it will instead start mining x11 (always the same, always x11).... and that is not profitable at all.... BUT, if I have only Mining Dutch selected in the profit switching menu, then start the miner, it mines skein normally with no problems.
The other problem that I have is that when I have all my pools enabled in the profit switching menu, AwesomeMiner will be mining the most profitable algo, and there will be no errors, no rejected shares, no hardware errors, but it will randomly just start mining the next most profitable algo in the list while the other algo is still the most profitable.
Also, when this happens, stopping the miner and restarting it will not make it start mining the top algo again... I have to completely close AwesomeMiner, and then it will start mining the most profitable algo again.
Does anyone else experience these issues, and what can I do to fix this?
1) Which of these pools are most profitable according to the View Details dialog (right click on the miner and select View Details)? The hashrates defined in the profit profile is what the profit switcher is looking at
2) I think you may not get any accepted shares for a period of time, and then Awesome Miner will mark the pool as "Failed" for this reason. You can disable this behavior in the Options dialog, Profit Switching section where you can uncheck "Ignore pools with no accepted shares".
Please keep an eye on this miner to make sure that it eventually starts to produce accepted shares.
1) I am using the nvidia profile (fully benchmarked and saved to profile) in my online services tab. When skein algo on Mining Dutch is most profitable.... It's because your software is telling me it is the most profitable. Clicking view details to see the most profitable gives me the same information as the online services tab.
The issue is that it's not actually mining skein like I said. (Unless I uncheck all pools in profit switching menu and only allow Mining Dutch)
At the very least, if there is no fix for me... Is there at least a way to disable just 1 specific algo for 1 specific pool??? If that is not possible, could you please add that in an update? I believe the ability to disable specific algos for specific pools would help a lot of people. I looked around but never found any option to do this.
2) Again, like I said.... AwesomeMiner will be mining the most profitable algo,
and there will be no errors, no rejected shares, no hardware errors, but it will randomly just start mining the next most profitable algo in the list while the other algo is still the most profitable.
Could the shares just be taking too long? I have ignore pools with no accepted shares set to 5 minutes.
EDIT: Yes I believe I had the setting "Ignore pools with no accepted shares (in minutes)" set too low. Setting this number higher or disabling it appears to keep miners mining when they are working harder for shares in certain cases. But this still does not explain why AwesomeMiner starts mining x11 on Mining Dutch when it is supposed to be mining skein.... and it is only with skein, like right now I have some rigs mining Nist5 on Mining Dutch, and none of them are having any issues and they are all mining the correct algo.
