I'm having similar error ; Windows 7 ; 64 bit ; mp4 file; Matlab 2017a
vr = VideoReader('R:\@SteveB\Group 1/0-01_WRD183-2-8.mp4');
Error using VideoReader/init (line 619)
Could not read file due to an unexpected error. Reason: Error Creating Source
Reader Reason: Unknown error 0xC00D36C4
Error in VideoReader (line 172) obj.init(fileName);
** When I use the application 'Video Viewer' , I get this error
Error occurred while attempting to read file: XXXXXX Details of error: Incorrect chunk size information in AVI file.
But its an mp4 file and I can view it with players like VLC media player.

Many times this error occurs while playing songs or movies and it is due to corrupt updates of windows. Sometimes it occurs due to unsupported nature of the file but you can counter it by downloading VLC Media player a very simple solution to this problem but if you don't want to leave Media player then visit https://validedge.com/error-code-0xc00d36c4/ for the solutions.

The issue can also be fixed by running a full scan of your system.
I think the issue is causing because of some bugs or malicious files.
