I cannot explain the relevant specifications (and I 
don't even know where to find them) to you but to the 
best of my knowledge:
Just as "MPEG constant bitrate" does not mean constant 
frame size, so a stream containing video frames of 
different sizes is not necessarily "variable bitrate", 
you cannot judge a video stream as being non-"broadcast 
level" just because it contains values < 16 or > 235.
