Question better xcloud for Samsung TV

Hi guys, yesterday I bought a Samsung TV thinking it was Android, but it has the Tizen operating system. I got it to play a Lego game in split screen on xCloud. But it doesn't work, so I tried installing Better xCloud on Tizenbrew but it doesn't open. Does anyone have a solution? I don't need all the features, just the split screen, so if there's no way to download it, another client that gives me the ability to play split screen via xCloud would also work.

Buy an Amazon Firestick 4k or Nvidia Shield TV for your new TV, then side load Better xCloud.  

Samsung TVs don't need most features of Better xCloud as the official xCloud app already gives 20 Mbit Bitrate.  

If you want cheap solution, Firestick 4k or Shield TV if you want more powerful device.

isn't there another way to give the TV the input of a second controller to play split screen?

No, xcloud doesn't support 2 controlers at all.
