Error using VideoReader/init (line 450) Unable to determine the codec required.

Error in VideoReader (line 147) obj.init(fileName);

Hello Vinay,

The error suggests that MATLAB is unable to find the required file. You may check for the following to ensure things are going good.

Ensure that the codec is installed correctly on your operating system.
MATLAB R2013a might have limited support for certain codecs and video formats. Try converting your video to a more commonly supported format such as H.264 encoded .mp4.
Use tools like VLC Media Player, HandBrake, or FFmpeg to convert your video file.

I hope this helps!
