I have a roku1 for an old samsung smart tv. It's OLD. So doesn't seem to be working correctly. Is my roku 1 too old? It says that my device is no longer compatible with prime video.

While Roku still supports the model 2710 Roku 1, Amazon dropped support for the device last year.

All current Roku devices are supported, and are expected to be for years to come.

I can purchase a new roku and which one could I purchase for my old samsung tv?

As long as your TV has an HDMI port, any of the current Roku devices will work.

I’d recommend one of these: https://www.amazon.com/Roku-Streaming-Device-Vision-Remote/dp/B09BKCQYRN

Keep in mind that all current Roku devices made after 2018 are HDMI only.  If your television does not have an HDMI port, you’re probably going to need either this: https://www.amazon.com/Portta-Converter-Component-Support-Extractor/dp/B00A8FIQXA (that is, if your television has the component Green Y, Blue Pb/Cb and Red Pr/Cr inputs), or this: https://www.amazon.com/Converter-Adapter-Supports-Streaming-Blu-ray/dp/B09QYQCHX8 (that is, if your television only has the RCA composite Yellow input).

More specifically, what is the model number of your television set? You should be able to find it on either the back or the side of it, wherever the specification labels are.  

(Note: All of these links provided are examples; I personally don’t own any of these. The only Roku I own is an Express+ 3910 with the analog outputs.)
