WebTorrent not working

PeerTube
1

Hello everybody,

I’m seeking advise in how to enable WebTorrent as it seems to be not working for me.

When I first configured PeerTube I decided for some reasons against WebTorrent and instead only HLS. Now I was reconsidering my initial thoughts about it and switched WebTorrent to on in the admin interface of the instance. However while watching a video I always only have 1 Peer displayed on the video player.

My thought was that maybe I have to set this in the production.yaml file, so I did so and restarted PeerTube, but still only 1 Peer regardless of me having multiple browsers open playing the video. Or friends watching the video at the same time as I do.

The system is set-up running Peertube 2.1.1 with nginx in front of it.

Thanks in advance!

Thank you Chocobuzzz to hinting, that enabling the tracker will help with using WebTorrent to be used for streaming the video as well.
