Never mind, I figured it out Turned out it was an easy fix with my TV's video settings switching to "fit to screen"
If you have cm12.1 ROM installed there is a setting to do this in the np

Split screen for any app?

Hi all,
I was excited to start using the split screen functionality like I used to do on my note3, but noticed that not all of my apps show the "split screen" option when I touch the apps ... dialog in the recent apps area.
Some examples of apps that DONT show the split screen option are:
Netflix
Gallery
Clash of Clans
Camera
But other apps DO allow it like youtube, chrome, and ebay
I hope I don't have to install some 3rd party multi window app to get the functionality.
Does anyone know of a way to enable this for all apps?
I'm running: Oneplus A6013, OOS 9.0.5, Magisk v17.1, 4.9.106-ElementalX-OP6-3.04#1
I figured it out!
Under Developer Options,
Scroll Down to "Force activities to be resizable" and enable the option
Reboot
Enjoy

At least in Android 10 it doesn't work.
It makes the apps "resizable", but not "splittable".
