Hi Martin,
the official rtl-sdr driver has been forked many times on github.
Still I can say that the tuned bandwith is tunable with the official driver.
The exported API is:
RTLSDR_API int rtlsdr_set_tuner_bandwidth(rtlsdr_dev_t *dev, uint32_t bw);

see the git:
http://git.osmocom.org/rtl-sdr
the function has been added on 2015-05-15

I can make a guess, does you python program rely on another software layer
like gr-osmosdr? (gnuradio osmosdr)

because I had the same problem where I wanted to tune the bandwidth with
gqrx but the function was not implemented in gr-osmosdr, only in the
underlying
rtl-sdr driver.

If this is the case I already prepared a simple patch for myself and I will
the
more than happy to share it with you and the list.

Can you send some more details on your python program? Maybe I have some
time to check it out how it works.

Luigi
