Description

I use G722 (High definition audio) on some of my phones. Right now I have to disable the other codecs on the phone or in the individual extension settings. If I do not do that, ulaw gets selected because it is set as the highest priority codec in FreePBX by default. There is currently no way to change that in FreePBX.

The SIP Settings module is the most logical place to add the ability to prioritize codecs. The module already has the ability to select and deselect codecs. It would probably be quite simple to add the ability to re-arrange the order those codecs appear in the sip.conf file.

it's a valid request. In the meantime, you can simply do the following in the extension settings: 

disallow=all
allow=g722&ulaw

which will put g722 higher.

OK, I've got a change that will allow you to do the following. It is not exactly 'obvious' though it is mentioned in the tooltips and results in achieving what you want to accomplish:

  • un-check all the codecs, then hit submit
  • now check the highest priority one and hit submit
  • check the next priority one and hit submit
  • keep doing this for all desired codecs

This will result in a re-ordering of the priorities. Not the most flexible but gets the job done...

checking in momentarily.
