The Hydrogen gas produced during its reaction with metal gets oxidised to H2O, hence no hydrogen gas is produced.
Instead it evolves nitric oxides such as  NO2,NO etc.

dil.HNO3 is not used to prepare hydrogen because it is a strong oxidising agent and it produced hydrogen only when it react with magnesium only.
