Your gstreamer register seems to be corrupted somehow. Try to remove ~/.gstreamer* and to run gst-register-0.8 as root.
I removed the directory: ~/.gstreamer-0.8/ for both my own account and the root account. Then when I run gst-register-0.8 as root I get: (process:23177): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: type name `rner-tl"> </div> <div id="rhlp-content"> <div class="article" lang="en"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h1 class="title"><a name="index"></a>Fedora Core 1 Release Notes</h1></div><div><p class="copyright">Copyright © 2003 Red Hat, Inc.</p></div><div><div class="legalnotice"><p>Permission is granted to copy, distribute, and/or modify this document under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation; with no Invariant Sections, no Front-Cover Texts, and no Back-Cover Texts.

Looks like a gstreamer bug, reassigning
Upgrading to gstreamer 0.8.7 appears to have fixed this problem. Thanks for your help
