• If no other artists in genres similar to the key artist are found, the search range is
increased automatically.
Even when you increase the search range, "Cannot find linked artists" is displayed if
there are no tracks by other artists in genres similar to the key artist, or the tracks of
artists in genres similar to the key artist have not been transferred to the player, or none
the tracks stored on the player have track information.
Notes
• The Artist Link search feature and the criteria used to find other artists may change as a
result of updates to the player's firmware.
• Because the Artist Link feature bases its searches on track information, tracks with no
track information attached are not found by the Artist Link feature. If none of the tracks
stored on the player have track information, the Artist Link feature cannot work.
The track information can be retrieved automatically from the Internet.
• While "Artist Link" is displayed, the controls of the player cannot be operated.
• The Artist Link feature consumes more battery power than most other player operations,
such as playing tracks.
