Stops to command map an event from a 3rd party swc

I am using the osmf.swc to build a vid player and meshing it with Robotlegs for a nice framework.

To get in on the events sent by OSMF

1. Mediate a certain video event with my own custom event class
   eventMap.mapListener(myComponent, ControlBarEvent.CONTROL_BAR_PLAY_EVENT, handleComponentEvent, ControlBarEvent);

2. Dispatch into framework

private function handleComponentEvent(evt:ControlBarEvent):void

    {
        // framework will clone the event by default i think
        this.dispatch(evt);
}

3 Finally I need to have already mapped to a command for the event - bear in mind I have had to dispatch the event myself into the framework

commandMap.mapEvent(ControlBarEvent.CONTROL_BAR_PLAY_EVENT, PlayPauseCommand, ControlBarEvent, false);

4 Update the model with the coammand - in this case the PlayPauseCommand

So is that about right or am I being too verbose with my code ? - I kind of worked the above out through a bit of trial and error
but would welcome a more concise way of doing things.

regards

   Only thing I would do differently is

    eventMap.mapListener(myComponent,
   ControlBarEvent.CONTROL_BAR_PLAY_EVENT, dispatch, ControlBarEvent);

   Then you could eliminate the method that dispatches the event to the event bus.
