Hi,

Is it possible the files where created with a mtime in the future?

 From memory, Bacula uses the mtime of the files to determine if they 
have changed since the last backup ran.

If they have a mtime in the future they get backed up every time.

If so, using 'touch' on all the files to reset their mtime should stop 
the behaviour I believe.

Cheers,
