FIELD: physics, video.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to video coding means and comprises coding significance information for a set of transform coefficients associated with residual video data according to a scanning order in one or more first passes; coding a first set of bins of information for the set of transform coefficients according to the scanning order in one or more second passes; coding a second set of bins of information for the set of transform coefficients according to the scanning order in one or more third passes. In the method, significance information of said first passes and the coded first set of bins for information of second passes are grouped together.
EFFECT: high efficiency of coding transformation coefficients associated with residual data.
