'can you watch it' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'a dissipated dive for nothing?' is the wordplay.
'a dissipated' is an anagram indicator.
'for' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'nothing?' becomes 'O' (looks like zero - 0).
'dive' with letters rearranged gives 'vide'.
'vide'+'o'='VIDEO'

'in' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for video that I've seen before include "Film recording" , "YouTube media" , "Recording medium" , "Visual element of television" , "Recording tape for visual images" .)
