Asterisk automatically takes care of saving CPU issue as it picks the file
that have less translation cost (in other words it picks the file that gives
the best CPU performance based on call situations like in which codec format
the call is bridged ). That way you don't have to worry about specifying
particular format moreover there is no provision to do that in Playback
application. You can see translation costs by typing the following in
console.

core show translation
