You can add any type of file to calibre to create a 'book' item.

The only file type I've ever had problems with is Windows shortcut files (.lnk) when running calibre under Windows.

File types that don't have embedded e-book metadata (e.g .txt, .mp4) will use the template specified in Preferences->Add books->Reading metadata to set the metadata -- see @theducks post #2 above.
