Reproduction Steps

1. Put config files mpv.conf and input.conf under portable_config directory next to mpv.exe.
2. Run mpv.exe without argument. Both config files are automatically loaded.
3. Press ` to open the console.
4. (Not necessary). Run load-input-conf ~~/input.conf. Loaded again without problem.
5. (Not necessary). Run load-config-file <fullpath of mpv.conf>. Again no problem.
6. Run load-config-file ~~/mpv.conf. Raise errors:

[file] Cannot open file '~~/mpv.conf': Invalid argument
[stream] Failed to open ~~/mpv.conf.

Expected Behavior

Command load-config-file ~~/mpv.conf loads mpv.conf without error.

Actual Behavior

It doesn't load mpv.conf but raises errors:

[file] Cannot open file '~~/mpv.conf': Invalid argument
[stream] Failed to open ~~/mpv.conf.

Log File

Sample Files

No response

I carefully read all instruction and confirm that I did the following:

• I tested with the latest mpv version to validate that the issue is not already fixed.
• I provided all required information including system and mpv version.
• I produced the log file with the exact same set of files, parameters, and conditions used in "Reproduction Steps", with the addition of --log-file=output.txt.
• I produced the log file while the behaviors described in "Actual Behavior" were actively observed.
• I attached the full, untruncated log file.
• I attached the backtrace in the case of a crash.
