For professional photographers and videographers in the Xiaomi community, the “Director Mode” on our devices is a true game-changer. It offers a professional film camera interface with advanced controls, enabling us to capture stunning footage. That’s why many of us were concerned when this beloved feature went missing for some users after the latest Android 16 update. However, we have great news! Xiaomi has listened to its users and is actively working to bring this powerful tool back to the latest devices, including the new Xiaomi 14T Pro and Xiaomi 15.
The Xiaomi 14T Pro is particularly well-known for its support of this mode, providing advanced parameter controls and even the ability to shoot in log format for professional color grading. The mode allows you to connect a Xiaomi Pad or another smartphone for real-time monitoring, offering a comprehensive and professional video shooting experience. While some users may have temporarily lost this functionality, its return is a testament to Xiaomi’s commitment to delivering top-tier software and listening to its dedicated fan base.
Understanding and Using Director Mode
Once the fix is rolled out, you’ll be able to re-engage with this amazing feature and take your videography to the next level. Here’s a quick guide to using it:
- Open the Camera app on your phone.
- Switch to the More tab.
- Enter Director Mode.
- Adjust your recording settings, which can include resolution, frame rate (up to 4K at 60 fps), and more.
- Tap the (i) icon to learn more about the mode and its unique capabilities.
Director Mode is a fantastic example of how Xiaomi empowers its users with tools once reserved for expensive professional cameras.

We are tired of promises and we cannot find a solution for our phones that do not work properly due to update errors. We are almost losing the specifications of our flagship devices due to incomplete updates. How long will we remain in this situation? You can…
Apart from lazyness and money why can’t the Xiaomi 13 and 13T series can’t have it?
Very unprofessional behavior by Xiaomi software division of just taking out phone functionalities.
This is one of main reasons why many people think twice about buying phones and tablets. For phone i went Samsung for this reason, i dwell a lot of time on buying a Xiaomi tablet and did it and i am happy with it, but the software side is unremarkable. i had to install GCAM app to get raw photo saving just because the Xiaomi photo software for a high spec Xiaomi tablet is subpar.
