The quality of disparity map from stereo_image_proc is very low

I am running this on ubuntu 20.04 Ros noetic and python 3.8.5. I used 2 USB cameras (2 cables), and I have calibrated them through camera_calibration package (epi is about 0.20) !image description After that , I tried to generate disparity map through stereo_image_proc package but I got a really weird map. !image description BTW, it seems like that there is significantly vertical translation between the left image and the right image. I am not sure if it is a problem because the cameras are already been calibrated.

I recorded a video from calibrating the cameras to generating the disparity map.

The following is my launch file used to generate disparity map.

<launch>
<group ns="stereo">
