Best Answer

A satellite dish is designed to connect to a satellite receiver unit. Generally they are dedicated devices. There are a few satellite receiver cards or devices that can be installed into a computer and will operate as a video input card for the computer. These are specialist devices and will not be found as a standard feature on any computer.

Normally, to capture a video feed, the output form a dedicated satellite receiver would be connected to a video input port on the computer. Again, the video input is a specialist device typically used in video editing and not usually found as part of a standard computer set up.
