Client does not add file if tracker is set to false

[VoR0220]

Any help again is welcome. Works when tracker is set to true. But when set to false, nothing appends.

client defined here:

self.client = new WebTorrent({tracker: false, dht: true, torrentPort: addr});

    self.client.add(self.file, function(torrent) {
      // Got torrent metadata!
      //torrent.addPeer(addr);
      var file = torrent.files[0]; // Let's say the first file is an audio file...

      console.log('Client is downloading:', torrent.infoHash);
      console.log('Client is listening for:', addr);

      torrent.files.forEach(function(file) {
        // Display the file by appending it to the DOM. Supports video, audio, images, and
        // more. Specify a container element (CSS selector or reference to DOM node).
        var playerTarget = document.querySelector('.track-details');

        file.appendTo(playerTarget, function(err, elem) {
          if (err) throw err; //file failed to download or display in DOM
          console.log('New DOM node with the content', elem);
        });
      });
    });

@VoR0220 I assume this is in the browser?

Right now, WebTorrent in the browser requires the use of trackers. There is no DHT. So this outcome is not surprising to me.
