Afaik, you will need to develop your own “segmenter”. This is similar to what you need to create HTTP Live streaming files. There might be a simpler solution, but here is what I would do:
You can make a relative small program (in python) using multifilesink next-file=buffer (or next-file marker, if segments can’t fit in memory).
You’ll need to encode or demux your input stream, and mux the stream back. Cut the muxed stream on key-frame when the desired duration is reached, and push the aggregated buffer (or mark a fake key frame, for example, to force sink to create a new file). Reinitialize the muxer (or append muxer streamheader) to get file with correct header than can be played seperately (depending on the muxer).
