Ok, xmms doesn't have a nice simple record button, but it does allow saving of streams. And while it doesn't have a built in way to set the length that isn't a problem for a UNIXhead since xmms is scriptable.

I have been known to use "at" to have xmms start a playlist a few minutes after the alarm clock as a backup when I really have to get up early. No reason the same idea couldn't be used to start and stop a recording.
