Ingest is the process by which content stored on one medium is loaded and stored on another medium. In the broadcast field, it normally refers to tape based content being imported to disc based storage. This might be a tape recorded by a news cameraman that has to be transferred to a computer for editing ready for a news broadcast.

On a larger scale, an ingest suite may be set up to transfer archived footage on analog video tape to a digital archiving and access system. There are many organizations currently doing this with their video content gathered over previous years. As analog production facilities are being upgraded to digital, the content also needs to be converted to digital disc based media. As well as broadcasters, many sports bodies are undertaking their own ingest projects.
