Neat! This worked perfectly. Thanks for the tip - I had never heard of ReStream.

@Asmodian - As I understand it, the Shield assumes 601 or 709 based on the resolution and then maps those colors into the colorspace of the Shield's video output. I'm not sure if it respects flags in the video stream or not. There's also a Shield-specific issue (tangential to my question) where colors are not correctly mapped to Rec.2020. But as far as conversion via avisynth, I'm not sure how I would do that. ColorMatrix only has a generic BT.601 mode - it doesn't distinguish between NTSC and PAL. There's a note in the docs: "For ColorMatrix we assume I709 = S240 and I470=FCC=S170, because the error will be very small."
