roSystemLog alternatives

This source indicates that roSystemLog does not work for SceneGraph apps (https://developer.roku.com/docs/developer-program/core-concepts/scenegraph-brightscript/brightscript-support.md)

However, both bandwidth.minute and http.error work as intended in my SceneGraph.  Is this a know issue that only http.connect does not work? Or, am I doing something wrong? I'd like to get http.connect to trigger when I set my poster's uri field, but that is obviously not happening.

If http.connect does not work for SceneGraph apps, is there a good alternative to enable me to monitor the http requests happening within my app?
