Been using Minera for a week now and I love the gui and graphs for stats.
One issue I'm encountering is the failoverpool display. I know this is a nonissue but it would be nice if I could get this troubleshooted.

My main pool is nicehash and I've set a minimum payment that is above the current profitability rate. Nicehash rejects my connection and I failover onto my backup. When I ssh in and look at the session I can see that I am connected to my backup pool however on the Minera page it is still saying that my main pool is alive and hashing away.

Thank you for your time and effort that you have put into Minera

This is a quirk that's hard to avoid due to the way which CPUminer handles failover pools. All minera can do is check to see if the pool is up via HTTP - the CPUminer api doesn't report what pool it's currently mining if there are failovers selected so if the pool is up but your'e not connecting because of password - it still shows up in minera.

Hopefully sandor will oneday make the pool handling a little sleeker. I'd also like to be able to see live pool switching without restarting the miner. But that's a limitation of CPUminer, not minera.

This is probably the only feature of Scripta that I miss now that I'm moving to Minera. Scripta shows not just a list of pools from the preferences, but a summary of the stats for each pool (accepts, rejects, etc). This way I can tell at a glance where my hash has been pointed. It's not unusual that my main pool will hiccup for a little while, which will result in some hash spillover to my secondary.

It's important for me to know that this has happened because my secondary unfortunately has no decent auto-payout options. I have to know that there's coin there to go pick it up. With Scripta I can tell at a glance that there's been activity on the secondary. With Minera, I guess I will have to periodically go look at the secondary pool.

It would be nice if Minera reported the actual pool that cpuminer is pointing at in real time. But it would be even more useful if the cpuminer API provides per pool stats that Minera could integrate into a summary display.

Thanks in advance to michelem and sandor111 for continuing to consider my continuous stream of demands. They have really done an awesome job with the Minera/cpuminer combo.

As per request, pool info has been added to the API.
