Well, it would be good to be able to set a recording length.

Anyway, I achieved exactly this by using mencoder and a short script.
I had quite a good system going (I have over a hundred old tapes) as my
script took in a 'tape number' and a 'tape length', recorded the tape then
copied over the file to my server and switched off the PC.

I'll try and remember to dig out the script if you like.
