Sounds like you're offering to do the work.

  What a wonderful idea! I've sent him a tweet offering to help and get access to the videos in order to transcribe them.

    Do you speak Hebrew?

      Now I'm suddenly imagining hours of Hebrew video subtitled by bad lip syncing.

      I don't. Computers do though

        Computers do? I think you are overestimating the ability that computers have in understanding speech. Think auto-subtitles in YouTube in English that often barely work. In other languages it's much harder, because sentences don't necessarily work the same way as the system was designed/trained for. When e.g Google Translate actually works really well, we can talk. Before that, human translators are needed.

          I am thinking auto subtitles on the level of YouTube. I'm not saying I could do a perfect job here, all I was volunteering for was to run the videos through an automated program to meet some letter of the law. Knowledge is being burned here, why wouldn't I rush in to save it with whatever bucket of water I can offer?
