+==== TVIP IR remote with multiple IR code pages ====
+IR remote with multiple code pages has **"MC"** tag at the bottom right corner of the TVIP logo.
+\\
+TVIP IR codes could in some cases be the same as codes on a TV or some other equipment. You can change IR code page to resolve such issues. There are 3 different IR code pages. The first "0" code page is the same as on a regular TVIP remote.\\
+\\
+:!: Please note, that IR code page change is only supported on TVIP mediacenters running OS Linux-Qt with firmwares 4.0.13 and higher.\\
+\\
+Steps to change code page:
+  - Press "Settings" (at the left of S.INFO) and "Recall" (at the left of "0") at the same time. Remote will switch to the next code page (totally 3 code pages).
+  - Point the remote to the mediacenter, press "S.INFO" button and hold it for 10 seconds. Mediacenter will display a message about changed code page.
+==== TVIP remote with IR and Bluetooth technologies ====
+Some TVIP mediacenters have dual IR+Bluetooth remote controls. These remotes have **"BT"** tag at the bottom right corner of the TVIP logo.
+\\
+Dual remote uses Bluetooth connection if possible. Otherwise it uses IR.\\
+\\
+Possible statuses of a dual remote:
+  * Single LED blink after a single key press means that remote uses Bluetooth connection.
+  * Multiple LED blink after a single key press means that remote uses IR.
+  * Fast LED blinking means that remote is connecting to a mediacenter.
+Usually, a dual remote connects to a compatible mediacenter over Bluetooth protocol automatically.\\
+Steps to pair remote manually:
+  - Use a thin tool to press and hold the button located at the bottom of TVIP mediacenter. Hold it for 10 seconds. Mediacenter will start searching for a new BT remote.
+  - Press and hold INFO and EPG keys on the remote at the same time until LED starts blinking.
+  - When mediacenter finds the remote, remote will start blinking fast for a couple of seconds. Then connection should be established.
+:!: Please note: usage of dual Bluetooth+IR remote is only recommended in pair with a mediacenter that supports Bluetooth. Otherwise, performance will be lower (compared to general IR remote) and battery life will be shorter.
