Dear Hungary,
Usually the I frame interval is fixed in the encoder.
Howeve, some of the encoder may have intermediate I frames also.
The determination  of I frame can vary from algorithm to algorithm.
Some of the ideas:
1. In P frame, you must be estimating Intra macroblocks. Now you can take the count of
   intra Macrobloks and if exceeds some percentage of total macroblocks, code it as I fr.
2. If the total SAD after motion estimation is more than some level code it as I frame. 
   This mainly happen when there is scene change, assuming that ME algorithm is goood.
With regards
Pankaj
