Hi,

First of all you will need to connect to the IP output stream provided by your DVR system. Usually, DVR systems are providing an RTSP output stream.

Please take a look at the following forum article describing [How to re-stream video from an IP camera](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-create-and-use-stream-files-in-wowza-streaming-engine-manager)

Then, you will need to have your STB configured to connect to one of the streams provided by your Wowza server. Please take a look at the following forum articles describing different players and streaming protocols that can be used to connect to a Wowza server: [https://www.wowza.com/docs/streaming-protocols](https://www.wowza.com/docs/streaming-protocols)

I have used [Fastvdo Smartcapture](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-use-fastvdo-smartcapture-pro-live-stream-encoder-with-wowza-media-server-native-rtp%28native-RTP%29) to do this. And there are probably similar products.
