My home came with security cameras already installed. What is a good dvr box I can use to control them? (sopuli.xyz)

Each camera has its own analog connection wire. I am looking for a dvr box that I can connect to a home server and run something like Shinobi. I currently have this dvr box https://ellipsesecurity.com/product/hdtvi08b-tru-view-hd-tvi-8-channel-hd-security-dvr/ , but i don't think it can automatically forward video to a home server

They are very expensive though, and were almost impossible to get for a while.

Yes they kept canceling my orders and forbidding me from ordering ;). I believe all is well now. The black cameras look so nice.. really looks similar to some lighting fixtures so blends in well.

I ordered from a retailer, and just waited for 4-6 months.
