    I think what you are referring to is mentioned in this Blog post: https://blog.roku.com/developer/2017/02/01/legacy-sdk/

    It lists the following components as being deprecated:


    roCaptionRenderer
    roCodeRegistrationScreen
    roGridScreen
    roKeyboardScreen
    roImageCanvas
    roListScreen
    roMessageDialog
    roOneLineDialog
    roParagraphScreen
    roPinEntryDialog
    roPosterScreen
    roSearchHistory
    roSearchScreen
    roSlideShow
    roSpringboardScreen
    roTextScreen
    roVideoPlayer
    roVideoScreen

    Also, the SDK documentation (BrightScript Component Reference) includes the following note under certain components that are slated to be deprecated:


    This component is no longer updated and will be deprecated on January 1st, 2019.

    Beginning July 1st, 2017, any new channels using this component will be rejected during certification.

    Beginning January 1st, 2018, any updates to existing channels using this component will be rejected during certification.
