Is it possible to get Media Express to auto stop capture after 3 hours?

Unfortunately not - unless it's a hidden function that I haven't discovered!
Blackmagic Teranex 2D, Ultrastudio Express, Intensity Shuttle (Thunderbolt), Two H.264 Pro Recorders (Mac OSX) & lots of old VTRs used for digital archiving of legacy video formats for major libraries, broadcasters, universities and public archives.

Ok, well. I have actually forgotten a capture once and when I returned the Media Express application had quit because of an unexpected error or something. I didn't see any message. But when I watched my capture it was ok and the file played normally even though the capture wasn't stopped in the right way or place. Maybe it's possible to just automate the mac so the application shuts down after 3 hours instead.
