Genesis:Video Cables

There are many different versions of Genesis RGB cables available.

Genesis 1 Cables

RGB (SCART)

The Genesis Model 1 doesn’t output stereo through the rear A/V port; that port only outputs mono sound. Luckily, the front headphone jack does output stereo, so the Genesis 1 cables listed above have a 3.5mm headphone cable that routes stereo audio through the SCART connector.
