Q: Is SD Onboard Recording supported for the VDB780B?
A: No. The VDB780B is battery-powered, so Onboard Recording is not supported.
Q: Why is the camera name and timestamp missing from the initial VDB780B footage?
A: Because the VDB780B is battery-operated, the device needs to power on before it can display camera/timestamp information within the footage. This is why it takes a few seconds to display the camera name and timestamp after a clip is triggered or the live view begins streaming.
