Comment:

 This can't work with formats like mp3 or m4a (aac), as it requires out of
 band metadata sent to the Icecast server. This is not supported by the
 Icecast protocol in ffmpeg.

 It should work fine with supported formats, like ogg, which are capable to
 properly contain metadata in a non-hacky way.
