Neither work at my current Grub2-efi prompt on Kaby Lake. From videoinfo, I do
get a two line output:
List of supported video modes:
Legend: mask/position=red/gree/blue/reserved
...
> (3) running

Give inxi -G -c0 a try.

If you've only ever used UEFI boot mode on that Asrock, try booting a USB stick
or HD with Grub2 installed in CSM (non-UEFI/GPT) mode to see if either command
returns anything. Neither vbeinfo nor videoinfo has _ever_ worked for me. I
suspect those commands are not compatible with one of either various UEFI BIOS,
or all UEFI BIOS.
Ask on the help-grub or Grub-devel mailing lists if you can't get a Google
answer that lines up with my suspicion. and nothing useful turns up here. I only
use Grub2 on UEFI systems with GPT, always Grub Legacy with MBR disks.
