Where is this coming from?  You don't enforce anything about rows below.

So if you pass a value which is too high, you get some lower number instead?  It should probably hard fail here - I'm not sure what your use case is for this option, but I imagine it being for conforming to the some specific stream requirements (like bluray or whatever), so just ignoring the option in that case is probably bad.

I'm still unconfortable about this method of distributing the macroblocks equally to slices with rounding error at the top - slice boundaries are not invisible at low bitrates.  I don't have anything better to suggest, though.

It's a driver constraint, not a VAAPI version one.

I use mb_height as the upper limit about MAX(slices) , but maybe I am wrong,
in va.h, I find the flag VA_ENC_SLICE_STRUCTURE_ARBITRARY_MACROBLOCKS with comment
"Driver supports an arbitrary number of rows(I guess rows is wrong 
comment in this, I think the right word is microblocks) per slice".

So I will drop this check in V3 patch. Tks.

Agree.

I don't have any idea to distribute MBs to slice, maybe we can follow x264 style to forces rectangular slices ? I don't know.
