ELAN doesn't recommend a particular file format or encoding (anymore). In terms of cross platform compatibility mpeg-1 and mpeg-2 are probably the most suitable formats.
ELAN just passes the media file to the media framework. If you are working on Windows, the first framework that is tried is the Windows Media Player. If WMP cannot play the file, QuickTime is tried, followed by JMF. But this only works if error messages are generated by the player (and if they are handled correctly by ELAN, of course).
You can change the "default" player via Edit->Preferences->Edit Preferences and then the Platform/OS tab.
