Not really. The input stream doesn't really have a concept of GOPs (any
keyframe/delta-unit flags on raw video frame buffers are there more by
accident than by design). There are, however, events you can insert into
the stream to force the encoder to output a keyframe next, which you
could probably use to achieve this.
