This is done.
I've just finished packaging a new version of fame. It's very different
from the old FAME from one year ago, but now goes much faster and I added
mp3 encoding with lame.

Unfortunately, I don't know anything about shoutcast :(
Currently, fame encodes two separate streams for audio and video. I tried
using a video-only player and a mp3 player reading from the UDP streams 
and the synchronization is not too bad.

Command lines that might be useful to you:
CLIENT=localhost
VIDEO_PORT=10000
AUDIO_PORT=10001
fame -r 25 -v udp://$CLIENT:$VIDEO_PORT udp://$CLIENT:$AUDIO_PORT
nc -l -u -p $VIDEO_PORT | mpeg2dec -
nc -l -u -p $AUDIO_PORT | mpg123 -

The video player I tried wasn't mpeg2dec but this should work. nc is the
'netcat' utility.

The release is brand new from today!
