Maybe??

I have a very similar device (Philips GoGear Raga 4GB) but the model number is SA2RGA04K/97. Running lsusb lists the device as 0471:20b4. Using the mpi file as above but changing the model number and device id worked fine.

Thanks Adam, I pushed this to upstream.

Just to confirm, I changed the mpi file in the latest version of media-player-info (ubuntu 10.10 on netbook). changing to :20b4 did the trick.
