Seems actually okay. Have no idea but I suggest to use the `<object>` tag anyway. You might also read on the troubleshooting about a trick how to use Youtube and other stuff within the gallery.
i got the youtube one tu run, but cannot get this to work.... also this means if i put the code in for youtube, then i cannot use the same tags(s) i do with this....
your missing the point, the youtube trick only works with youtube vids as it uses the variables from it. It will not work with other types as they all use different types.

Is it possible to manage youtube videos (or from another portal)?
Zenphoto is actually meant to manage multimedia files on your own webspace but with Zenphoto 1.2.6 there is indeed a way:
1. Enable the class-textobject plugin on the backend plugins page.
2. Upload a plain text file (.txt) with code to embeed a specifc (video) file via ftp or the backend.
3. To use an thumbnail besides the default one follow the same instructions as for video thumbnails.
4. That’s all.

however, ive tried this in the past which works but this cannot be used as a comment? or can it?
Not exactly sure what you are saying. But it sounds like you want to post a zenphoto object in a comment? To do so you would have to put the html link to that object into the comment. (And your allowed tags would have to allow all the html you used.)
Any tag that is not showing up in your output is being expunged by the sanitization functions. These remove tags based on their not appearing in the list of the "allowed tags" option. So whatever tags are being removed need to be added to that option.
