The closest I can find is videos about mothers after the fact. This video hammers the point down quite well. I couldn't find any videos with dead babies filmed still laying on their stomach after dying. The most I could find was grieving mothers with PSA's attached.

The doctor in that video is pretty great.

Adding to this, if there is footage, it'd likely be caught by "baby cam" or "nanny cam", but many such devices are set up out of the box to start recording only when there is motion in the room for a certain duration.

Since SIDS happens suddenly and the babies are found to have died without struggling in their sleep, it is unlikely that cameras like these would catch the whole thing seamlessly. Realistically, you'd end up with two videos: one with the parent putting the child to sleep, and one of the parent freaking out when they find their baby unresponsive.
