There are a few examples of dynamic texture loading in rviz. For example,
the ROSImageTexture (src/rviz/image/ros_image_texture.h/cpp) translates
sensor_msgs/Image messages into Ogre textures. Note that I use an old API
for it currently, the new one is documented in the Ogre manual:

Without some code it's impossible to know what's going wrong.
