Yes- the issue was a problem back in early 2020 as 8.0 was released
"suddenly" and plugins developers had to play catchup without forcing
all 7.* plugin users update plugins with no functional change.

That said, some of your repo URLs were out of date. I would advise to
remove all 3rd party repos URLs and then discover which ones you now
need and make sure they the up to date one.

With the new automated 3rd party plugin list build which rebuilds 3rd
party list every x hours - there is less need for separate plugin repos
previously required to push out plugin updates quickly.

Thanks for the info about PlayMP4.
I think I know the source about the version problems: I installed these
plugins quite some time ago. In the meantime the install.xml has been
updated within the plugins / repo, but not the version number of the
plugins. Therefore the old installation did not update the plugins.
I was cautious before upgrading LMS, thus I updated all install.xml of
plugins before, as I was not sure if these plugins get removed during
the update progress. 
Probably there is no issue when upgrading an old installation or in the
worst case people have to reinstall the plugins after upgrading...

Best,
Frank

WRT to my plugins. The list is a bit out of date.  
For example the PlayHLS plugin is for V2 but the a beta test version
which was only used for short periods toi test fixes for user found bugs
and so can get out of date v. quickly. The "release" version is
http://bpa-code.github.io/bpaplugins/repo-playhls-v2.xml

To be part of the LMS "3rd party plugins" list most of my supported
plugins have been moved into
https://netcologne.dl.sourceforge.net/project/bpaplugins/OtherPlugins/bpapluginsrepo.xml
such as iHeartRadio, RadioNet and PlayHLS V1. 
Plugin in this repo such as RadioNet means their own repo URL are no
longer supported (e.g. in your list
https://bpa-code.github.io/bpaplugins/radionet-repo.xml )

Any of my plugins that are needed/supported for 8.* had their
install.xml updated (like many other plugins) in Feb 2020 shortly after
released of 8.0.0 and the then advice for 7.9 users was to delete &
reinstall plugins to get install.xml update.

I think you should base your starting list from the LMS reposiotry
https://github.com/LMS-Community/lms-plugin-repository/blob/master/include.json

They shouldn't have version problems.  Do you have plugin rfepo URLs ?
maybe they are old development ones.

PlayMP4 was an hack plugin (IIRC used ffmpeg to play MPEG4)  which is
now redundant with addition of MP4 support in 8.* so it is not needed
for 8.*
