C# Library to Make a Media Center Type Application?

I want to make an application with a GUI similar to Windows Media Center or Boxee but I don't know where to start.

Some 2D GUI libraries or links to tutorials on how to make such an application would be greatly appreciated.

I would suggest .NET's two built-in GUI libraries: Windows Forms or the newer, prettier Windows Presentation Foundation? If you're looking for something that can play video files, VLC's plugin is nice. Or you can use the Windows Media Player control.

<Window x:Class="FullscreenWpf.MainWindow"
        xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
        xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
        Title="MainWindow" Height="350" Width="525"
        WindowStyle="None"
        WindowState="Maximized"
        Topmost="True"
        Cursor="None">
    <Grid>
        <Label>Hello?</Label>
    </Grid>
</Window>
