Hi moody,
there are three major problem sources:
1) Frame rate: viso2 works better with high framerates or small displacements. It was originally designed for a forward looking camera.
2) Computation time: check that the computer where the node is running is not 100% busy.
3) Texture/Illumination conditions: not only the disparity image has to be good, but also the texture in order to extract good features.
In a nutshell, it is a visual odometer and it will drift over time. It is better that you fuse it with other sensors than using it alone.
