Standard drop–down is greyed out. Shall I start a project from scratch?

Sorry, that's a bug which should be fixed here.

'Application Profile' metadata extension missing for CPL

MCA Sub Descriptors missing for CPL

OK, maybe what it wants is something looking more like SMPTE Bv2.1 but with no MCA subdescriptors in the MXF (but in the CPL), and WTF rather than 51 in the MainSoundConfiguration. Let me hack you a build that does these things, and then if it fixes the warnings we can try to work out who's actually right here :lol:

Here is a build with those tweaks if you have time to test. Thanks for your patience!
