I am buying an elgato HD. My monitor has only DVI support and I am going to record my XbOne. I have an hdmi to DVI cable, but on the xbox, if I switch it to HDMI instead of DVI in the output settings, it doesn't show up on my screen.
The Elgato only has HDMI and some other video input, so I need an hdmi cable or something of the sort with a separate audio passthroguh

Optical audio comes to mind if you want to separate video and audio.
Im confused on the part where switching Xbox One to DVI since it doesn't have DVI out, didn't know that was an option?
To my understanding this is what you might be after?
XBox one --> HDMI --> ELgato --> HDMI to DVI --> Monitor
\_--> Optical --> speakers

HDMI and DVI carry two minimally different signals. The XBOne allows you to output DVI signal, which works with HDMI but HDMI signal doesnt work with DVI. The elgato has no external audio input ports. I am using optical, I have that convert to RCA, then to Auxiliary for my headset

I see thanks.
So if i understand you correctly, you want to make sure before buying the recorder that both video and sound will record. But by selecting DVI in Xbox HDMI audio is disabled, if you select HDMI video isn't passed on to the monitor.
DVI and HDMI are both digital and is the same signal. Its how the XBox is communicating with your monitor that is missing when set to HDMI because of the adapter cable. Try forcing the resolution if you can by not having it on auto detect.

There is a possibility the elgato accepts Xboxs EDID communication (like talking to a tv/monitor without a display) and the elgato then just spits out (pass through) the video feed out to the monitor regardless if using dvi adapter, like tricking the Xbox. But not sure on this!
Its a tricky dilemma, maybe get a HDMI monitor with speakers?

An HDMI audio extractor will provide an audio output you can use with the audio input associated with a DVI video input.

How cheap could one get an HDMI monitor? (does not require speakers.)

I'm not sure of recording software sorry or if might still be limited by Windows singular playback devices. An stereo audio mixer with multiple inputs might work.
