Help! Trying to replicate what OculusMirror.exe does, but without the graphical front end.

The goal is to create a screen capture tool that doesn't need OculusMirror.exe to be up and visible, the frames would be grabbed and saved from code.
I started with the OculusRoomTiny_Advanced/ORT(Mirror Variants) sample, and have it compiling and running.  I'm trying to pass in ovrInit_Invisible to ovr_Initialize, so that it doesn't show up in the Oculus Apps list.  But nothing seems to render with that, except for the Oculus courtyard / menu app.  I was hoping I could simply not call ovr_SubmitFrame, and ovr_GetMirrorTextureBufferDX would continue to pick up what ever other game/app is running.  But I can't get anything to work.

Has anyone else out there tried to replicate what OculusMirror.exe does?
