Windows Server 2008 Firewall

Hi Experts.
We have two DVR devices for cameras in our school with ip addresses as follows:
DVR1: 192.168.1.50
DVR2: 192.168.1.60
Our server runs Windows Server 2008 Standard Edition and we access the internet via a Router on whic port forwarding is setup ie we can view the School website on the server (Port 80).  We want to view the cameras over the internet during the holiday season so have opened port 7777 for DVR1 and Port 8888 for DVR2 on the Router (TCP and UDP). In addtion I have setup Port redirection on the Router so that Port 7777 External Address points at 192.168.1.50 Port 7777 and likewise for DVR2 (port 8888).
In addition, I created Inbound rules on the Windows Firewall for these ports.  However, while we can view the cameras internally (http://192.168.1.50) in the browser, we cannot access them from the internat.  Can you help?

when you access DVR from LAN, you connect on http://192.168.1.50 to view the DVR, and what port ? ( 80,7777,8888 ... setup of DVR )

you must setup port in DVR or set of ports to access from internet, check the manual what port or ports are needed
