  | "play"               // Playback started
  | "pause"              // Playback paused
  | "timeupdate"         // Progress update (fires regularly during playback)
  | "ended"              // Playback completed
  | "error"              // Error occurred
  | "loadstart"          // Started loading media
  | "loadedmetadata"     // Media metadata loaded
  | "canplay"            // Can start playback
  | "fullscreenchange"   // Fullscreen state changed
  | "volumechange"       // Volume or mute state changed
  | "ratechange"         // Playback rate changed
  | "qualitychange"      // Video quality changed
  | "seeking"            // Seek operation started
  | "seeked"             // Seek operation completed
  | "waiting"            // Waiting for data (buffering)
  | "progress"           // Download progress
  | "durationchange";    // Duration changed
```

### Type-Safe Event Handling

```typescript
// Type-safe event emitter with proper data types
class PlayerEventEmitterImpl {
  on<T extends PlayerEvent>(event: T, listener: EventListener<T>): void
  off<T extends PlayerEvent>(event: T, listener: EventListener<T>): void
  emit<T extends PlayerEvent>(event: T, data: PlayerEventData[T]): void
  removeAllListeners(event?: PlayerEvent): void
}

// Usage examples
player.on('ready', (data) => {
  console.log('Player ready:', data.metadata);
});

player.on('play', (data) => {
  console.log('Playback started at:', data.currentTime);
});

player.on('pause', (data) => {
  console.log('Playback paused at:', data.currentTime);
});

player.on('timeupdate', (data) => {
  console.log(`Progress: ${data.currentTime}/${data.duration}`);
});

player.on('ended', (data) => {
  console.log('Playback completed, duration:', data.duration);
});

// Error handling
player.on('error', (data) => {
  console.error('Player error:', data.code, data.message);
});

// User interactions
player.on('volumechange', (data) => {
  console.log('Volume changed:', data.volume, 'Muted:', data.muted);
});

player.on('fullscreenchange', (data) => {
  console.log('Fullscreen:', data.isFullscreen);
});
```

## 🎮 Player Controls API

### Complete Interface

```typescript
interface PlayerControls {
  // Basic playback
  play(): Promise<void>;
  pause(): void;
  seek(time: number): void;
  
  // Audio controls
  setVolume(volume: number): void;        // 0.0 - 1.0
  setMuted(muted: boolean): void;
  
  // Advanced controls
  setPlaybackRate(rate: number): void;    // 0.25x - 2x speed
  setQuality(quality: QualityLevel): void;
  
  // Fullscreen
  enterFullscreen(): Promise<void>;
  exitFullscreen(): void;
  
  // State queries
  getCurrentTime(): number;
  getDuration(): number;
  getState(): PlayerState;
}
```

### Playback Control Examples

```typescript
// Basic playback
await player.play();                     // Start playback
player.pause();                          // Pause playback
player.seek(30);                         // Seek to 30 seconds

// Volume and audio
player.setVolume(0.8);                  // Set volume (0-1)
player.setMuted(true);                  // Mute/unmute

// Playback rate
player.setPlaybackRate(1.25);           // Set speed (0.25x - 2x)

// Quality (if available)
player.setQuality('720p');              // Set quality level

// Fullscreen
await player.enterFullscreen();         // Enter fullscreen
player.exitFullscreen();                // Exit fullscreen
```

### State Queries

```typescript
// Get current state
const state = player.getState();
console.log(state);
// {
//   currentTime: 45.2,
//   duration: 120.5,
//   playbackState: "playing",
//   volume: 0.8,
//   muted: false,
//   playbackRate: 1,
//   quality: "auto",
//   isFullscreen: false,
//   buffered: TimeRanges
// }

// Get specific values
const currentTime = player.getCurrentTime();
const duration = player.getDuration();
const qualities = player.getAvailableQualities?.();

// Check if ready
const isReady = player.isPlayerReady?.();

// Get metadata
const metadata = player.getMetadata?.();
```

## ⌨️ Keyboard Shortcuts

4. **Domain Allowlists**: Use domain restrictions to prevent unauthorized embedding
5. **HTTPS**: Always serve over HTTPS in production
6. **API Key Management**: Secure API key storage and rotation
7. **Input Sanitization**: Validate all configuration parameters

## 📦 Package Integration

### Import Styles

```typescript
// Automatic style loading (default)
import { createPlayer } from '@memoreco/media-player';
