I was wondering if someone could give some more detailed explanation of why a
Hauppauge 150 (or 350/500) driver/chip combo refuses some ordinary video
encoding bitrates while other work just fine.
For example setting
"Video Bitrate" 4 500 000
gives an error while
"Video Bitrate" 4 600 000
works fine. Is there (for example) some "multiple" of a base value that whould
be used ?
(I would like to try to include some checking in my program to avoid this error
message in case the end user have selected an "illegal" bit rate)

Could it be that when you first tried setting the video bitrate to 4,500,000,
the maximum bitrate was less than that? I've found that the order in which you
set these two parameters is important. If you want to adjust both values up,
you must first set the maximum, then set the video bitrate. If you want to
lower both, you must first set the video bitrate, then the maximum bitrate. So,
before changing both values, you should query the current maximum so you know
which value to change first.
