The same problem with process gst-plugin-scanner: eating cpu (~100%)/system 
freezing (for about 10-15 seconds, when system starts). Fresh installation.
gstreamer1.0 - 1.14.1-1ubuntu1~ubuntu18.04.1
ubuntu 18.04.1 x86_64 4.15.0-33-generic (i7-7700HQ / NV GTX1050Ti / 16GB RAM)

Title:
  gst-plugin-scanner hangs, eating CPU time

Status in gstreamer1.0 package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Hi,

  gst-plugin-scanner is eating 100% CPU time which leads to unusable Ubuntu. It 
appears couple of times daily. 
  (My guess is that it is causing by application firefox , skype , totem , 
nautilus ).

  Ubuntu 13.10

  Only help is:
  killall -9 gst-plugin-scanner
  (but it appears again sometimes.)

  
  I have attached:
  gst-inspect-1.0 > ~/gst-inspect-1.0.log
  gst-inspect-0.10 > ~/gst-inspect-0.10.log

  
  Kind Regards,
  Martin
