Hi!
When I run the run_dso_euroc example for the EUROC dataset MH_01_easy with preset=1, the tracking fails every time (tested with two different machines). At the beginning it estimates a completely wrong trajectory and at some point it drifts away and the program finishes with:
I0303 17:37:58.151147 5455 FullSystem.cc:73] *** taking frame 1380 ***
I0303 17:37:58.152616 5455 FullSystem.cc:114] tracking new frame
W0303 17:37:58.168910 5455 FullSystem.cc:360] BIG ERROR! tracking failed entirely. Take predicted pose and hope we may somehow recover.

The same happens for my own image data (12Mpix, global shutter, 5fps).
In the paper about DSO it is stated for real-time execution:
"In some rare cases - in particular during strong exposure changes - this causes initial image alignment to fail."
This failure of initial image alignment seems to be the case here, but my own images have a fixed exposure time and the lighting conditions were stable as well. Thus, strong exposure changes as a reason are quite unlikely.
What could be another reason for this behavior?
Thank you for your advice!
