'Misleading documentation of Dailymotion events
I recently tried to add an event listener to the Dailymotion player from the javascript API by following the documentation.
As I was not receiving any events, I discovered the list by doing dailymotion.events. This one returns me an object whose keys are in caps but not the values... the documentation shows us by an example that the events are in caps:
player.on("YOUR_EVENT", (state)).
Now that I’ve put the values in lowercase, I can hear the events of the Dailymotion player.

We’ve recently released a new library and the API naming construction did get updated.
If you are using the latest library: https://geo.dailymotion.com/libs/player.js, you can benefit from the new Player API and the list of events can be seen here: https://developers.dailymotion.com/player/#events
Please see example code: https://codepen.io/team/dailymotion-developer/pen/VwzpLXq
If you are using the legacy SDK, https://api.dmcdn.net/all.js please be aware we are in the process of discontinuing support for this product and advise you to adapt our newer technology.
However, in the meantime, the list of legacy events can be found here. https://developers.dailymotion.com/player/#player-api-events
