Hi,
you need a USB capture device that will convert your video output from the reciever to USB, in most cases the USB device would be supplied with software that can record but to turn it into a surveillance application you could use this IP surveillance / USB webcam CCTV recording software that also lets you watch the cameras from any PC anywhere in the world. You can try it for free at
See an example of a device that can covert your video to USB here
