The Chowmain IRUSB driver for ELAN provides IP control over the IRUSB with keyboard text entry, direct app launching, transport controls and more.

It adds additional IR outputs to ELAN by replicating the Global Cache protocol allowing for control over local IR devices via the built-in ELAN Global Cache drivers.

Lastly, it also can detect when audio starts and stops.  This is useful for automated selection of the device for Android TV boxes that have Chromecast built-in.  Now you can cast YouTube, Netflix or Stan via your mobile phone/tablet or by voice using Google Home and have ELAN automatically select the box as a source with full transport control over the casted content.
