Convert Roku Streaming Stick HDMI Output to DVI and Audio Input

[Fun Guy]

I have a Roku streaming stick I have been using on a TV that has HDMI inputs, but now I want to hook the Roku up to my Dell U3014 30-inch monitor.

Problem is, the sole HDMI port on the monitor is taken up by the video from my computer. All I have left for inputs are: (1) a DVI input, and (2) a DisplayPort input.

I should be able to convert the HDMI out from the Roku stick (which is powered by an 120v AC-to-USB connector) into a DVI + Audio out, correct?

If so, where do I find an adapter like this?

Can you swap the PC output to DVI and use the monitor's HDMI input for the Roku? If not, for the various reasons implied by the rest of my post, I think sdifox's suggestion of an HDMI switch is the most straightforward solution.

Among other things, does the the Roku require an HDCP-enabled display? Because I'm not sure all monitors that are HDCP-capable via HDMI are necessarily HDCP-capable via DVI, so if it does, you should RTF monitor M before buying an adapter and if necessary, make sure the adapter handles those hand-shaking signals properly.

But that aside, does the monitor have audio output(s)? It would probably be easier (and almost certainly cheaper) to let it handle the digital-combined-signal-to-audio conversion than looking for an adapter, or combination of adapters, that could output both a DVI video signal and a separate audio signal from a single HDMI input. And if you don't want to/can't use the monitor's audio output, if any, would you be looking for digital audio output from such an adapter, or analog? (ETA: Because if you want analog audio output, you're going to need something with a DAC, not just a simple "plug/socket adapter". And even for optical audio, you'd need more than a simple electromechanical "pins-to-pins" adapter.)
