Stream from LMS TO (not from) Icecast?

I found this ancient post

http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/Stream_to_Icecast

Does anyone have a more up to date approach to this and one which does not limit to stream.mp3? Something other than a sound card input and preferably something that can update metadata? I suppose I’m looking for a “bridge” type arrangement

A simple solution would be to pipe squeezelite's PCM output to ffmpeg (e.g. ffmpeg -c:a flac -content_type application/ogg [...] icecast://). This will lose the metadata, so you'll need to send metadata updates out-of-band with a script

Thanks I’ll investigate ffmpeg
I’m not sure about the script for metadata but someone must have an example
