    Abstract: A method for entropy encoding syntax elements of transform coefficient levels in a video encoder to generate a compressed video bit stream is provided that includes selecting a context for a first significant coefficient flag corresponding to a first transform coefficient level in a 32×32 transform block, wherein the first transform coefficient level is at a lowest frequency position in the 32×32 transform block, entropy encoding the first significant coefficient flag using the context, selecting the context for a second significant coefficient flag corresponding to a second transform coefficient level in a 16×16 transform block, wherein the second transform coefficient level is at a lowest frequency position in the 16×16 transform block, and entropy encoding the second significant coefficient flag using the context.
