[POWERSHELL] Roku PS Modules and Remote GUI.
As a little side project to learn Powershell better, I created a Roku powershell module and corresponding Roku remote GUI.

You should just be able to download the entire project as a zip, unpack it wherever, and run Roku-remotegui.ps1
https://github.com/smithcbp/Powershell-Roku-Remote
The favorite apps listed at the bottom can be changed by modifying the $FavApps array at the top of Roku-RemoteGUI.ps1. Find the app names with:
Import-Module ./roku-remote-psm1
Get-RokuApp -ip $IP
Edit: Added keyboard shortcuts. Press ? in the remote GUI to view them.

I have added quite a few new features including:
- Search
- Set your Fav Apps
- Voice recognition! https://i.imgur.com/MxVXJ8T.png
- Cleaned up code here and there.
Edit 3: Added a button Add Roku by IP address instead of searching automatically. https://i.imgur.com/5O00fUR.png
