Use accessible media controls

Media players need comprehensive, accessible controls that work for all users. At minimum, include options to pause, play, stop, rewind, adjust volume, mute, and toggle captions.^[1]

These controls should be clearly visible and usable with both mouse and keyboard. They should also have sufficient size, contrast, and clear labeling. Consider keyboard shortcuts for common functions and ensure that controls work with assistive technologies like screen readers.

Remember that these controls benefit everyone, not just users with disabilities, as they allow all people to customize their experience according to their preferences and environment.
