Help Nero DVD Burning problem

Please can anyone tell me what is Device I/O Error? I have tried to burn with nero, films from my c drive onto dvd the burn process gets to the end and than I get the I/O Error. This is strange as it only happens with films, I have burned music videos and they are perfect, I did manage to burn one film but the sound did not come out.
The dvd rewriter works ok as it is new and I have updated the firmware. I have also updated my Nero so I am now confused as to why films seem to be the problem. Any help with this matter would be very much appreciated.

What brand of DVD-R media are you using to back up your movies? This has a significant impact on the quality of playback since different burners/players are picky about what media they are presented with. The sound problem could be that you've burned a downloaded movie where the default soundtrack is, say, DTS and has been removed but the regular AC3 track has been retained.

My dvd rewriter brand is Emprex.

Hey thank you guys for your advise.

I have found the solution to the problem. It was the software, Nero the latest version, and I have tried a new program called dvd clone and it has worked perfectly.
Whats more there was no error messages at all and the dvd discs I was using are now trouble free. I have burned six movies. The problem seems to be Nero and so I would recommend anyone having too many problems with Nero to try dvd clone or 1 click dvd copy. The burn process is easy and it burned the movies I downloaded from the internet, legally of course.

So I am now burning away a very happy bunny Thanks again for the advise. Here is the site where you can get info for the above programs.
