The access to the DVR system is SOLVED.

Thanks to all for giving helpful suggestions.

Last evening, just for the heck of it, I booted my laptop with Windows
XP, started Firefox and tried to connect to the DVR box (from one of
the ext_IP in the DNAT ruleset).

Lo behold, I got a pop up window for username/password.  Entered the
same and was prompted to install QuickTime plugin.   I also had to
download Quick Time.

After installing QuickTime and FF plug-in, I was able to connect to
the DVR system, select the camera and view the respective coverage.
The DNAT fw rule is OK.

>From my openSUSE 11.2 Linux desktop (same subnet as WinXP laptop), I
still get the "400 Bad Request" error.  Tried from an Ubuntu desktop
(10.04 + FF) and it is able to login into to the DVR but it was not
able to play the QuickTime stream (a separate problem).

The bottom line --  the problem is with my openSUSE 11.2 desktop setup :(
