On the contrary, this is not sample perfect:
a line in my crontab, starting a recording of one minute every minute.

* * * * * /Users/hans/bin/rec -q /tmp/file-`date +\%s`.wav trim 0 00:01:00

This does indeed record each minute of audio into
an appropriately named file, but the transition is not seamless
(as verified by playing a song longer than one minute).

But if you change this to record your "predefined blocks"
of a couple of hours, then perhaps overlaping a few samples
will not matter if the seams are at silent times.
Or you could record whole days, restarting at, say, 3 am.
