[Mp4-tech] CAVLC, h.264

[Sastry_KRK]

we have a couple of queries regarding CAVLC. ( Ref residual block CAVLC
cyntax, h.264 )
1. what is the maximum value level(i) could take  
2. if the pattern has lot of variations in level(i) say (...,
10,1,-8,7,15,1,9 ... ). if suffix length of 3 suits for element 10 , the
next smaller values could not be properly encoded as there is no way to
reduce suffix length ( threshold ).  
   A. is our understanding corect.  
   B . does such type of pattern is possible   
regards
KRK Sastry
