Here's the cable you need:

And here's the converter you need:

The Genesis/CD/32x does output RGB since the 32x takes the Genesis RGB for mixing it's own signal. The audio can come directly from the Genesis headphone port if you have a model 1 or the RCA connectors on the Sega CD if you have a model 2.
Your HDMI scalier should take the low res component signal and upscale it for your TV. Best way to ensure it does is buy some PS2 component cables, pop a few PS1 games in and see if they display on your set using your scalier.
Of course if you want more RGB SCART then you're gonna have to get a SCART switch box with RCA audio out and I know Arseen can recommend a few since he lives in Europe.

Or get Genesis 2 RGB-scart cable that has extra RCA audio outputs.

I used to be able but those have been phased out as HDMI is now the main norm.

That does help as well, I forgot they do make some with separate RCA out.
Ah gotcha, well then pretty much try to get one that has actual switches, the cheaper ones are horrible when it comes to crosstalk and video quality.

the cheap ones I have don't affect the picture quality at all.
And crosstalk is eliminated by not having more than one console at once.

Wait I'm getting confused... Are you saying these 2 cords will work for me, in the United States? I don't recognize those cables... Which end goes into my DVDO EDGE?
