Hi, i guess that you receive the "operation not supported" from the FE driver and not from andy DiSEqC Equipment you may use :)
As Andrew told you already the STV0229B Frontend isn't able to react on a DiSEqC reply. It it the same reason like always - there is backwards compatiblity and manufacturing FE without these or other capabilities is cheaper. So why should somebody implement DiSEqC 2.0 functionallity into the FE Hardware - if you also can use the Switches with the 1.0 commands.
