I was in a situation earlier today. The DCP had a wrong central audio canal and needed to be corrected.
I had the MXF Input file in which I was able to identify what the correct channel. Was there a way for me to generate another CPL using the same DCP that I already had just removing the wrong channel and putting in the right channel?
I could not figure out a way and ended up generating the DCP from scratch and it took me around 5 hours in total. Wondering if such situations can be handled in a better way.

Re: DCP - Wrong Audio Channel
You could have created a version file that contains only the corrected audio. However, you need the full original DCP to do that, not just an MXF file.

If you have full access to the original project, you could also just replace the bad audio file with the correct one and recreate the DCP. If all image settings stay the same, the video part will not be recompressed and DCP creation will be done within a few minutes.
