I just Bought a Supercard Lite slot 2 microsd
from Cheapmod.com
It came with nothing except for the cartridge itself...
What do I need to run music, videos, GBA and NDS games
Is it possible to run opera are another web app
is it possible to run pdf files
My question is What do I need to start running smoothly. :cry:

Did you receive a Superkey along with it?  If not, you'll be limited to GBA mode until you get one, which is going to set you back a bit.  Also, make sure it's not a Rumble card.  If it's a Supercard Rumble and you have no Superkey to go with it, then it's entirely useless.

If you don't have a Rumble, use the following apps in GBA mode:
mp3 files - convert to WAVE and then use GSM Player from http://www.pineight.com - put the .wav files in the correct folder and click go.bat
Vidoes - use the Supercard movie converter software on the website or use Meteo, available from http://www.gbaflashguide.com/main.php?p=utilities - note that with Meteo you only get from 5-25 minutes of video depending on the quality settings you use.  See http://wiki.pocketheaven.com/Meteo for instructions
GBA games - run them through the Supercard patcher with the settings given on Supercard compatibility lists (use Google)
PDF files - you'll need to convert them to image files and then use the "GBA JPEG Viewer" (use Google).  This is the best image viewing app for the GBA.  To make images zoomable, change the JPEG settings to "resize to fit 432x288 and keep aspect ratio" before adding any files.  Patch the output file with the Supercard Patcher, and double-click the filename to find all the options - disable all of them except the first "enable save" and copy the output files to your card.
Opera - not possible with just a slot-2 device, even with a Superkey.
Other web browsers - once you get the Superkey you can use DSLinux, DSHobro, Bunjalloo, or DSOrganize

Welcome to the SCdev.org forums. As long as your Supercard Lite isn't the rumble version then you can use it as a RAM pack for the Opera browser. You will need to run a special version of the Nintendo DS Browser ROM that is hacked to use Supercard RAM instead of a the normal Nintnendo RAM pack.  Run the hacked Opera ROM from your SCDS or R4 with your Supercard Lite in slot 2.

If your DS insn't flashed then you can use your SCDS as a passme to boot your Supercard Lite.  If you run a program called Lovelite from your SCDS it will boot to the Supercard Lite menu.  With Supercard Lite you will need to patch DS ROMs and GBA ROMs with the Supercard Lite patcher software before they will run.  Moonshell is a homebrew application that can play MP3s and video as well as display pictures. The SCDS has moonshell built into the OS.  Moonshell can also be run on Supercard Lite and R4 using the DLDI patcher. There is no PDF viewer homebrew for DS.  With the Supercard DS (One) and Supercard Lite (not rumble) combo you can pretty much do anything.

bitblt seems to have covered most of it.  The patcher software and updated files can be found from the homepage and "software" page of http://eng.supercard.cn in addition to the "downloads" section of this very site.
