Re: [ANN] Miner Control 1.5.4 - Auto profit switching miner controller
Mind you, I know next to nothing about coding, but wouldn't it be possible to use the miner to check for life? Let's say you're mining with miner A, and you want to check if service B is alive. You then start miner B, and if it gets a block or other sign of life, you close miner A and let miner B do it's thing. If it doesn't get a sign of life, you close miner B and let miner A continue.
Yeah dude, I thought of that as well. But having 10 pools to check it means MC has to open 10 instances of a miner? Every minute?...
Even with 5 that would be too much.Anyhow - I hope there are more knowledgeable people that can help with how to check for an alive pool. Maybe someone from the sgminer devs? The sgminer code is available for everybody to look at, right? If somebody can read it that would be great.
