That should be controllable by a weight, for example 2 peers: A --> G729, G711 B --> G711, G729
What's currently happening is that * starts transcoding between the two (g729 for A and G711 for B), what i would like is to apply a weight to peer A so that the codec of choise at both sides becomes the preffered choise of A (G729) on both sides so there won't be any transcoding. This would allow for some nice things as fax passtrough (A and B has to use G711 then, but if the weigted A says G711, B would use G711 to).
