Error Playing Url with Flutter Audioplayers

Question

I am just trying to test Flutter Audioplayers library, but I am having an issue actually playing the audio. Here's the code:

specifying vars and init state

  class _HomeState extends State<Home> {
  bool playing = false;
  IconData playBtn = Icons.play_arrow;
  AudioPlayer _player;
  AudioCache cache;
  Duration position = new Duration();
  Duration musicLength = new Duration();

  Widget slider() {
    return Container(
      width: 300.0,
      child: Slider.adaptive(
          activeColor: Colors.blue[800],
          inactiveColor: Colors.grey[350],
          value: position.inSeconds.toDouble(),
          max: musicLength.inSeconds.toDouble(),
          onChanged: (value) {
            seekToSec(value.toInt());
          }),
    );
  }

  void seekToSec(int sec) {
    Duration newPos = Duration(seconds: sec);
    _player.seek(newPos);
  }

  //Now let's initialize our player
  @override
  void initState() {
    super.initState();
    _player = AudioPlayer();
    cache = AudioCache(fixedPlayer: _player);

    // ignore: deprecated_member_use
    _player.durationHandler = (d) {
      setState(() {
        musicLength = d;
      });
    };
    // ignore: deprecated_member_use
    _player.positionHandler = (p) {
      setState(() {
        position = p;
      });
    };
  }

initializing it in build

                     IconButton(
                          iconSize: 62.0,
                          color: Colors.blue[800],
                          onPressed: () {
                            //here we will add the functionality of the play button
                            if (!playing) {
                              //now let's play the song
                              _player.play(
                                  "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5qap5aO4i9A");
                              setState(() {
                                playBtn = Icons.pause;
                                playing = true;
                              });
                            } else {
                              _player.pause();
                              setState(() {
                                playBtn = Icons.play_arrow;
                                playing = false;
                              });
                            }
                          },

But when I click the play button, I am getting this error here:

V/MediaHTTPService( 7522): MediaHTTPService(android.media.MediaHTTPService@3e1520e): Cookies: null
V/MediaHTTPService( 7522): makeHTTPConnection: CookieManager created: java.net.CookieManager@2c4642f
V/MediaHTTPService( 7522): makeHTTPConnection(android.media.MediaHTTPService@3e1520e): cookieHandler: java.net.CookieManager@2c4642f Cookies: null
E/MediaPlayerNative( 7522): error (1, -2147483648)

V/MediaPlayer( 7522): resetDrmState:  mDrmInfo=null mDrmProvisioningThread=null mPrepareDrmInProgress=false mActiveDrmScheme=false
                          

I have added the cleartext http in manifest.xml, so it is probably not that, any ideas what it could be? Thanks!

You have used the Audioplayers library of Flutter, But this Library does not support the stream URL, used the audio_stream_player this library.
