The only way I have found is to install becomeroot, then sudo gainroot from xterminal.
finally issue the command:
shutdown -hP 60
The system will halt and power off in 60 minutes.
I'd love a neater way to do this.

I think you could do that with cron (basically a command line task scheduler). Though I don't know where to find the cron build (you'll have to search the forums for it). But after that you just setup the commands in a file and have cron iniate it at whenever time you want.

With cron you could also just kill your media player app instead of shutting the whole tablet down.

If You consider killing player process - so if You already know the PID number - You can always use something like:
sleep 100m;kill -9 PID
If You don't want xterm window to be left open or even minimized - use screen and run this command on it.
sleep 100m;kill -9 PID
If You don't want xterm window to be left open or even minimized - use screen and run this command on it.

Quick note: the busybox implementation of sleep only seems to take a value in seconds, so you'll have to multiply up.

sleep 3600 && killall vagalume <- or your processname works just fine 
But vagalume does not exit completely. The icon on the top will still be open but thats not a problem as far as the music stops ^^
