The xml snippet from the signature file we made is not diplaying properly in the above comment, but here are the sequences and location in a different form (or see the xml signature file attached to the above comment, thanks): BOF; offset: 0; sequence: 65613303 BOF; offset variable (1000-4000); sequence: 454133010060????00000000010F5000

Testing your signature and found some of my OMA files have the sequence "454133030060" so 03 instead of 01.

I also have quite a few OMG and AEA formats which are also ATRAC types. I will see if I can add a signature to go along with this one.
