HDMI to DVI question

I am trying to run my xbox 1 on an DVI monitor, I don't get any video at all. Do I have to change a setting on my xbox for it to work, or should it be plug and play?

    Shouldn't this be the kind of question to ask Google before buying either the cable, Xbox or DVI monitor?

    This was the first result that came up for me on Google, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EjwUuQ4ZCXc

    I normally play on an HDMI TV at home, so no issue there. I only spent $2.50 for a long shot. It was just an adapter to stick on the end of the HDMI cable to insert into my computer screen. I honestly figure that as long as the connector did its thing, that the xbox would be smart enough to reconfig to show graphics on screen. I was reading that I may need to change a setting.

    There is a setting in the xbox 1 that was set to HDMI only. I needed to put it on auto mode, which is recommended. Thank you for your help @MagicMatthews99
