Actually the package which you were looking for is
gstreamer1-libav
which is I think pretty exclusive to Fedora 18, I don't think reinstalling any of gstreamer-plugins could do the trick for you.

Reinstalling gstreamer1-plugins-base and gstreamer1-plugins-good (both packages from Fedora) is very unlikely to fix decoding of MPEG and MP3.
I was dubious too. But it worked. I think it was something to do with forcing the plugins to be registered.
That registry is local to your user's account. :) You can simply delete it instead of reinstalling packages:
rm $HOME/.cache/gstreamer-1.0/registry*
The next time a GStreamer1 based program is run, the registry will be recreated. Alternatively, there are the command-line tools that trigger a rebuild of the registry too, e.g. gst-inspect-1.0, gst-launch-1.0, or:
$ cd ~/Videos $ gst-typefind-1.0 DSCN0762.MOV DSCN0762.MOV - video/quicktime
For GStreamer 0.x, the registry is in $HOME/.gstreamer-0.10/
