Don't know anything about your prior setup, but some programs will downsample higher rez files to a sample/bit rate that is playable. An example of this is the Squeezebox Touch player being fed by by a PC using the LMS program. The Touch will only go to 24/96K, but LMS will downsample 192K files to 96K which is playable on the Touch. Your old system may have done this, while it sounds like the BDP2 is sending the higher and unplayable bit rate to your DAC.
