I don’t know about the others, but here’s how to insert a description into pages (albums and album sets already have descriptions)

FYI, a future version of Backlight will support meta descriptions for pages. The work is already done to support this, but I cannot yet say when the new version will be made available.

Btw, what sort of page is it reporting these issues for? A gallery? A page? A page or album containing a video?

Hi Mike,
You've got some killer images of your travels. I've much enjoyed poking around your site.
I was not able to locate any video pages, though. To be fair, your site is huge. =P
If you can point me to a specific address, that would be helpful.
In digging around a bit on my own, it looks to me like the errors might be coming from YouTube's own video embed code. Funny that Google would be complaining about YouTube, but :shrug:. If that's really the case, there's maybe nothing we can do about it. But it's something I will continue to keep an eye on and do what I'm able.
