I'm not sure the hidden mining option is a smart move as I can only see negative reasons to use it...

It's an option you don't need to use it

in my case it's essential before I was running a GPU farm on a campus now I've moved all the cards to our office (yes I'm the owner - so it's not illegal anymore Wink

)

Today I was testing it, but unfortunately there was not a lot of switching done today, but when I was running it yesterday I remember there were quite a lot of switching happening for 1/2 min back and forth,...so I think you should consider implementing a "5 min buffer", where it would keep track of the new price and it won't switch immediately as of now, but after 5 min if the new price is still better then current,...this would avoid the constant switching if you're specs are very similar for different algos like x11 and x13. Yes when you minimize it you cannot bring up the miner window and you can only manually stop and start in order to see what's going on well it's not an elegant solution. IMO the next step would be to include the miner window on Control Form right next to Activity tab, and print out the last few lines of what's happening, so in this case you would avoid the previous issue and have an elegant overview of what's happening with the miner. Some people would like to see the gpu temp fan speed and all the neat stuff that cuda manager has, but I don't think it's necessary because it's meant to be used with newer generation nvidia cards and those suckers are running cool and quiet Roll Eyes

More important feature for "todo list" would be to the lack of backup pools in ccminer/cudaminer so to detect if there's a problem with hashing and miner starts running on a backup pool. When situation goes to normal tries to switch back to the most profitable nicehash algo.

Will continue to test and report back.
