In _freeform2biblio:

1098 # We only want to create biblios for books
1099 return 0 unless $metadata->{type} eq 'book';

Can we allow other types to create bibs? For example, DVD?

Hey, I don't see why not.
However, having it hardcoded wouldn't be great, I wonder if we could have some sort of configuration that would allow setting what "ILL type" corresponds to which "Koha item type" and if it should create a biblio or not, though I'm not sure what the best way of implementing this configuration would be.
I also want to bring attention to the following bug that intends to 'push' FreeForm into core as a native out of the box ILL backend:

Is it possible that the 'only books' argument is related to not generating bibliographic records for electronic resources?
