So new to using Kodi/xbmc and was wondering what's your go to add ons that you love to use and can't live without. I've fallen I love with the few features I've found on Aeon Nox but haven't used it too much since I'm just adding all my movies right now.
So tell me what add on you love to use. I don't have any yet.

Ah, this takes a track you play, looks on last.fm for something similar, then adds that to your playlist, but from YOUR music collection. Kind of a smart party mode. Given my music collection of over 23000 tracks it can really dig into the corners and play stuff I forgot I even had !!

Although I don't think it's necessarily the best looking, I use T! because it does what I want with regards to adding custom menu items in a nice, user friendly way, so I generally stick to T! for the most part.
I spent a long time on Bello...I think it's the best looking, but lack of mouse support became an issue so I had to move away from that.
As for add-ons, I don't really use that many to be honest, well...not 'up-front' ones, but I suppose I use the HD Trailers add-on more than anything else. I do need to have a look at Pseudo TV though, I like the sound of that one.

My current skin: Amber (then I throw in the Confluence blue bubble background for some nice blue/gold balance)
Very basic options, nothing fancy.
My current PVR setup: Simple IPTV
Video add-ons: NetfliXBMC, Crunchyroll, Southpark.de, NASA, Pseudo TV Live, Lazy TV, Dbmc (Dropbox), some others I can't remember at the moment...
Program add-ons: Transmission, XBMC Log uploader, LCDProc, XBMC Backup (set to automatically backup all my settings at least once a month to my NAS)
Other add-ons I like but don't use often: Keymap editor (great if you don't want to manually edit your keymap XML files. MCE users should also check out the MCERemote add-on), the FLIRC configuration add-on, Video Extras (I just don't have many extras), XBMC Library Auto Update, XBMC File Cleaner, Cinema Experience, Trakt (and a nod to ShareThe.TV and MyEpisodes), iPhoto, Next Aired, XBMC Unpause Jumpback, XBMC Check Previous Episode, AutoSubs
Add-ons that look great but I haven't had much time using them: Chrome Launcher, Advanced Launcher ROM Collection Browser, XBMB3C (Media Browser integration), PleXBMC (for those of you who use Plex. I don't :P ), IrcChat, Last episode
Scrapers (other than defaults, which I normally use): XEM, Scrudlee's AniDB mod, Universal Movie Scraper
Music add-ons: Pandroa,
Screensavers: Nyancat, Trailer Screensaver Service
Web interface: XWMM, Chorus

I just switched to the EMINENCE skin, but I don't know how to enable any plugins. I have nothing to watch at all now, but if I switch back to the normal kodi skin, i have all my stuff. am i doing something wrong?

Eminence has two ways to access the addons - one is via the video/movies hub from which you go to "files" and form the to add-ons or simply go to the add-ons main menu which lists all video addons at least. Music addons can for now only be accessed via the music hub or by creating your own shortcut on the main menu. I personally added a link to the only music add-on I use (google music) directly to the home menu.
