How to get RGB from Blackmagic UltraStudio?

GENERAL

1) Does anyone have general advice for getting RGB pixel data from a Blackmagic input device?
2) Does anyone have a shader-based solution for converting YUV data to RGB?

SPECIFIC

The add-on ofxDeckLink works fine in YUV mode, but I cannot get RGB values from the data coming from the Blackmagic.

The declaration for Input.setup() is:
bool start(BMDDisplayMode mode = bmdModeHD1080p30, bool use_rgb_colorspace = false);

If I leave the use_rgb_colorspace as false, I can draw the data to screen, but I can't access the pixels the way I want to, because the format is YUV.
If I set use_rgb_colorspace as true, I see only black on the screen.

Is there another way to enable RGB for the add-on ofxDeckLink?
