Thank you. Some comments follow.

Upstream version is confusing. The main file says its 4.3.0, but last
tag, created one day before bumping to 4.3.0, mentions 4.2.0-RC1.

Moreover, commit 631299... does not match a version bump. So, you should
also bind `revision' to, e.g., "0". and use `git-file-name'.

Eventually, you need to remove the "v" from the version string. It
belongs to the tag, not the version.

You can write propagated inputs on a single line.

  (propagated-inputs (list emacs-compat emacs-s))

Please remove the article "An" and the trailing white space.

Description should consist of complete sentences. I suggest something
like:

  "This package is an Emacs player, based on MPV.  More precisely, it
  [...], local music and video library manager, etc."

Could you send an updated patch?
