If I'm not mistaken, it's the other way around.  The advice concerning
revision 12618 was to use that one (or older), because something that
got checked in after that is causing problems for some people with the
HDHR.  Anything newer has that same issue.  BUT, current results seem
that if you enable "quick tuning" in mythtv-setup for your HDHR, it
seems to resolve the issue.

I just got my HDHR a few days ago and I'm still going through the 80%
or so channels that the scanner "found" but aren't tunable, and
putting in xmltvid's for the rest.  So I haven't personally
encountered the PMT bug that supposedly 12619+ introduces.
