Matt,

I you dont define a sip user/peer and just use a dial, asterisk will automatically use the codec that it prefers, in my experince whenever i dial SIP without defining a sip user/peer it always dials g711alaw/ulaw.

So in sip.conf in [general] (which would set codec choice for ALL sip calls) or in the defined section for sip device/user/peer have
disallow=all
allow=g723

Well... correct except that there is no [sipdevice].. it is all done
through IP registration on the other person's end.    So.. all I have
is the dial statement.  Is there a way to set a variable or something
right before the dial? (To my knowledge there isn't).

I am assuming you made a profile in sip.conf like so

[sipdevice]
type=peer
host=x.x.x.x
...
.
.
disallow=all
allow=ulaw

and in extensions.conf

exten => _X.,1,Dial(SIP/sipdevice/${EXTEN})

then this MUST work.  :)

you can do a sip debug or set debug 10

Hi,
How do I specify a codec to use for a SIP call?

IE.. If I'm doing Dial(SIP/blah) for some reason the call is
connecting using the codec at the bottom of my allow list rather then
top (G711u)... and I'd like to force it to G711u if possible.
