1. You can download old builds from the 'Builds' link above
2. You can check out to a specific point in time using git checkout <hash> and then build from there
You can use the 'Repository' link to explore the history, or look on github, or use git hist

You know what... I'm apparently lying to you... I swear that you used to be able to download .deb files from Builds, but I can't find a link now. My apologies.
In which case you're back to git checkout <specific-version-hash>, and then you can use Autobuild.sh to build the .deb file, and then use sudo dpkg -i <file> to install it. The instructions for building are in the link below, you'd just use that <specific-version-hash> to get an historical version from master instead of the latest code.
https://tvheadend.org/projects/tvheadend/wiki/Building
So, after git clone, you can then cd tvheadend and git checkout <specific-version-hash>.
Of course, if you want to use a much earlier version, or a version from a different branch, then things are different. 3.4 is available in the stable repository, so just follow those instructions - otherwise, you're going to have to read up on git branches to check out something other than master.

Alternatively, you could always raise a bug report on the CAS failure you're seeing, and see if it can be fixed...
