You have probably used the wrong form of the YouTube URL. If you used something like http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3D3kFn_3xRY that will disaply the YouTube website and not just the video. To just get the video use a link that looks like http://www.youtube.com/v/3D3kFn_3xRY.
The first thing you will need to do is to download shadowbox.js source from the github repository: http://github.com/mjijackson/shadowbox/downloads Second modify and build as required, then follow the next 2 FAQs for using a custom shadowbox.js and a custom shadowbox.css.

It is possible to only load a custom markup or only a custom css.
You can follow the steps outlined in the ‘How can I use my own shadowbox.js’ and ‘How can I use my own shadowbox.css?’ or you can manually download and extract as explained by the plugin.

Download or purchase Shadowbox from http://www.shadowbox-js.com/ and then… This can be accomplished using filters. You will need to run a filter on ‘shadowbox-js’; and here is some sample code to show you how: function custom_shadowbox_js($url) { return get_bloginfo('stylesheet_directory') . '/js/shadowbox.js'; } add_filter('shadowbox-js', 'custom_shadowbox_js'); Just drop that code, modifying to your needs, in a custom plugin or mu-plugin and enjoy.
Just as above this can be accomplished using filters.
