Methods and devices for encoding and decoding video using mode-dependent context determination in the case of level-run pair coding of transform coefficients are described. Intra-coding modes may be grouped into classes and each class may be associated with a partitioning of a coefficient group into regions. The region in which a coefficient falls determines, in part, the context selected for encoding bins associated with that coefficient, including a level, if the coefficient is non-zero, and a run if the coefficient correspond to the bin of a binarized run value.
