Clearbox 3 video problems youtube vimeo support

Question

hi all
my 1st post here, my 1st website build.
currently redoing company website, shifting from old flash based site to more iOS and android friendly layout. Using clearbox 3 lightbox for all galleries.
sample clearbox shows its compatible for displaying flash,qt,youtube,mp3 even html from galleries.
here is sample multi media code that is embedded when inserting the widget
  <div class="container clearfix">
    <div class="item"><a href="example/Flash.swf" rel="clearbox[gallery=Gallery,,width=600,,height=400,,title=Flash content]"><img class="fakepic" src="example/no_flash.gif" alt="flash content" /></a></div>
    <div class="item"><a href="http://www.youtube.com/v/OtQN-iDfprU" rel="clearbox[gallery=Gallery,,width=700,,height=490,,title=A clearbox 3 preview movie on YouTube,,comment=I uploaded some movies to YouTube from clearbox 3...]"><img src="example/no_youtube.gif" alt="youtube movie" /></a></div>

i'm trying to use youtube video of my own but am not able to spawn the video. the sample code from above works fine:
div class="item"><a href="http://www.youtube.com/v/OtQN-iDfprU" rel="clearbox[gallery=Gallery,,width=700,,height=490,,title=A clearbox 3 preview movie on YouTube,,comment=I uploaded some movies to YouTube from clearbox 3...]"><img src="example/no_youtube.gif" alt="youtube movie" /></a></div>
but when using my test video, it does not spawn anything:
<div class="container clearfix">
    <div class="item"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2hzMHcfuj1E" rel="clearbox[gallery=Gallery,,width=700,,height=490,,title=Clearbox 3 preview movie on YouTube,,comment=movies from from clearbox 3...]"><img src="example/no_youtube.gif" alt="" /></a></div>
I've tried the share urls from the share, embed options and still nothing. can anyone see whats so wrong from my code as compared to the sample??
also does anyone know if clearbox 3 is compatible with vimeo videos and how to get that working?
thanks for any help!

hi
thanks so much for your reply!
do you know of a jquery fancybox that is a little bit closer to clearbox3, one with preview thumbnails at the bottom of the slideshow image?
this is probably a funny question, but is there also such a jquery image gallery that is free for commercial use? is there such a thing as free for commercial use? anyone know
thanks for the help

I've never used Clearbox.  I typically use jQuery Fancybox for images & videos.  AFAIK, Fancybox works in all browsers.  I'm not so sure about Clearbox.
