Explanation
The Cisco IP Voice Media Streaming App provides multiple services on the same process: MOH, annunciator, software conference bridge, and software transcoder. You cannot disable just the transcoder portion - disabling the entire app (Option C) would also kill the annunciator. Option A is insufficient because resources NOT assigned to any MRG are pooled into a default resource group and CAN be used by devices without a configured MRGL. The correct approach is to create a dedicated MRG (e.g., 'Not_Used') and assign all software transcoders to it, then never include that MRG in any MRGL - effectively isolating the transcoders so they are never selected.
