The formal documentation is here (read the package Description, link at the top):
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/javafx/api/javafx/scene/media/package-summary.html

There’s actually a flow chart in the docs for MediaPlayer.Status:
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/javafx/api/javafx/scene/media/MediaPlayer.Status.html

Hope that helps.
