Well that is impossible to even begin to find out without knowing what make and model of laptop you have, what ports does your laptophave HDMI perhaps?

Sorry your laptop is a budget laptop from 2009 and does not have any options available for video signal input

Not according to this review as that is quoted as one of the weaknesses of this budget laptop

Even if it had, so far you have not given details of your stb and I already feel that I am :-deadhorse

Does your stb have HDMI output? which model is it?

One way around this would be to get a cheap linux box and stream the signal around your lan watching it on the laptop using vlc player.

The only way you can do it using that receiver, is to use something like this.

S-Video & Composite to USB Video Capture Device
