<p>The WordPress Video Lightbox plugin allows you to embed videos on a page using lightbox overlay display.</p>
<p>This plugin can be used to display images, flash, YouTube, Vimeo, iFrame etc in a lightbox overlay. The embedded videos can be viewed on iPhone and iPad too.</p>

<h4>Embedding Vimeo Video</h4>
<p>You can embed a Vimeo video using the following shortcode in a WordPress post or page:</p>
<pre><code>[video_lightbox_vimeo5 video_id="13562192" width="640" height="480" anchor="click here to open vimeo video"]
[video_lightbox_vimeo5 video_id="13562192" width="640" height="480" anchor="http://www.example.com/images/vimeo-thumb.jpg"]
</code></pre>
<p>You need to replace the value of “video_id” with your actual Vimeo video ID. When a user clicks on the anchor text/image your vimeo video will pop up in lightbox.</p>
<p>In order to embed a private Vimeo video you need to add the “p_hash” parameter to the shortcode.</p>
<pre><code>[video_lightbox_vimeo5 video_id="13562192" p_hash="5e2d1c1e6d" width="640" height="480" anchor="click here to open vimeo video"]
</code></pre>
<p>The value of “p_hash” can be found in the <code>?h=</code> hash parameter of your Vimeo embed code (e.g. <code>https://player.vimeo.com/video/13562192?h=5e2d1c1e6d</code>).</p>
<h4>Embedding YouTube Video</h4>
<p>You can embed a YouTube video using the following shortcode in a WordPress post or page:</p>
<pre><code>[video_lightbox_youtube video_id="G7z74BvLWUg" width="640" height="480" anchor="click here to open YouTube video"]
[video_lightbox_youtube video_id="G7z74BvLWUg" width="640" height="480" anchor="http://www.example.com/images/youtube-thumb.jpg"]
</code></pre>
<p>You need to replace the value of “video_id” with your actual YouTube video ID. You can also control the size of the lightbox window by customizing the width and height parameters.</p>
<h4>Optimizing the SEO of your Thumbnail Image</h4>
<p>When you are using a thumbnail image as the anchor, you can describe it using the “alt” parameter in the shortcode. It helps Search Engines understand what this image is about.</p>
<pre><code>[video_lightbox_youtube video_id="G7z74BvLWUg" width="640" height="480" anchor="http://www.example.com/images/youtube-thumb.jpg" alt="text that describes this image"]
</code></pre>

WP Video Lightbox

The shortcode is decent, but the designs are way too opinionated and there is a big red button on each of the videos. Would also like the ability to have the video title under the thumbnail for the video. Would not necessarily recommend.

Ok, but too opintionated

Very easy to use WordPress lightbox plugin to display YouTube and Vimeo videos in an elegant lightbox overlay.
