ProgDVB + SkyStar2 with the beta BDA drivers?

Can the wonderful ProgDVB recognize my SkyStar2 using the new beta {BDA} driver v4.4.1 from TechniSat? And if not, are you planning for BDA support in the future for that card?

I failed to make it work even with choosing "BDA compatible card" from the list.

Thanks a lot for your good and genuine support.

Well, It worked, finally.
The only problem (for my very short time run) is that ProgDVB is recognizing my SkyStar2 card as "{BDA} EchoStar DVBS" card which is wrong of course.
Anyway this is how I did it:

1- Open ProgDVB.ini using any program.

2- Edit the file and make the entries on it to look like this:
[Modules]
CurDeviceFile=BDA.Device
CurDeviceID=1
StartDevice=1

3- Enjoy and please note:

I held no responsibility for anything gets wrong in your card by this modification.
