You need to forward a port on your router directly to the local IP address of your DVR device/computer. From the rest of the Internet your local 192.168.x.x addresses are invisible -- they can see ONLY the public "WAN" address of your modem/router.

I suggest you pick a non-standard port (the VNC default is 5900). You're forwarding any incoming connections to (your public IP address:portnumber) on to 192.168.x.x (your device's local network IP address).

See sites like http://portforward.com and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_forwarding for more information.
