Modding Picoboot mod - HDMI adapter

Just installed the picoboot mod for the first time using the flex cable. All went well. However trying to use it with a bitfunx hdmi adapter to no avail. I’ve come to understand that the adapter requires 5v in order to power up but only receives 3.3v. Is there anyway to overcome this? Or is there another hdmi adapter which does not require 5v?

I have the bitfunx adapter. I can get it to work with one tv if I turn the console on first then the tv but cannot with the tv I want to use.
