There is a lot that is very good about your swing. I would offer that you should extend your arms further into the swing while bringing the bat directly in front of you.
This increases leverage and extends the time that the bat is in the hitting zone.
Watch Dimaggio's swing and observe the flight of his bat in his swing as well as his grip of the bat.
I think your swing is one of the best I've seen around here. And it's kind of spooky, but it's absolutely uncanny how much your swing looks like a right-handed version of my son's left-handed swing. Flip the video around and I'd almost swear I was looking at my boy!

The swing looks great...the only thing I will tell you to be careful about is make sure you don't drop that back shoulder too much. Most of the swings looked great, there were only a few pitches where you pulled the ball that it looked like you were dropping and driving. Homeruns don't happen back trying to lift. They are just by where you hit the ball.
Need hitting instruction? Have a video? E-mail me for help.
