IPDirector is a suite of content management software developed by the Belgian company EVS Broadcast Equipment. The tool groups several video production management applications, providing ingest control and playout of video feeds from an accompanying video server.

The combination of software and production server allows broadcasters to record, control and play media. Furthermore, ingest control, workflow management, metadata management, 'rough cut' on-the-fly editing and playout control features are also included.
