Multimedia Embedder is plugin that allows user to embed multimedia just like 
oEmbed, but with the added convenient of an HTML template system, each site has 
at least one template each for example Flickr will have two templates (photo 
and video). The users will get full control of the HTML template, for example 
the YouTube template can be modified to embed YouTube into JW Player rather than 
using YouTube default player.
This plugin also utilise HTML DOM to fetch Meta tag and other vital data about 
the media in question, if there is not enough data it will use the data from 
oEmbed as the last resort, all the collected data will get stored to the 
database for maximum speed and efficiency.
This plugin extends on WordPress Embed, so therefore it embedded the same way as 
oEmbed and requires PHP 5.3 and above.

here, url is the link to the media file that you wish to open in lightbox and hyperlink is the anchor text/image.

</code></pre>
Pop up Vimeo video in lightbox
<pre><code>[wp_colorbox_media url="https://www.youtube.com/embed/1284237" type="vimeo" hyperlink="click here to pop up vimeo video"]
</code></pre>
Specify an Alternate Text for an Image
<pre><code>[wp_colorbox_media url="https://example.com/wp-content/uploads/images/overlay.jpg" title="overlay image" type="image" hyperlink="http://example.com/wp-content/uploads/images/thumb.jpg" alt="Thumbnail image description"]
</code></pre>
Apply Custom CSS
You can specify your own CSS class in the shortcode to customize a text/image link.

Multiple CSS classes can be separated with a space. For example:

</code></pre>

WP Colorbox

Having to go to a website to see how to use this should be a huge no-no. Will not recommend this plugin to anyone.
