English term or phrase: fill to screen
Enhancing the Video Function
Wide-screen monitors like XXX have a tendency to stretch the picture when the monitor is set at Fill to Screen mode. It is possible to use the Custom Scaling feature described below to change the monitor display mode to a One to One or a Fill to Aspect Ratio mode which removes the stretching effect.
The monitor includes a custom scaling feature that allows you to enhance the video performance by adjusting the viewable image to an optimal display. There are three different options to be chosen: a One to One display, a Fill to Screen display, or a Fill to Aspect Ratio display.

ajustar a la pantalla / a las dimensiones de la pantalla
Explanation:
This is referring to the different modes that you can use on many flat-screen displays. "fill to screen" means that the device itself will stretch and if necessary slightly distort the image that you feed in, until it completely fills the entire screen.


In other words, if the dimensions of your screen are (for example) 1024 pixels horizontally and 768 vertically, but you feed it from a computer that produces an 800 x 600 image, then the display itself will "stretch" those 800 horizontal pixels until they cover 1024, and it will "stretch" the 600 vertical pixels until they fill 768 pixels.

In other words, it "scales" the video, using a built-in circuit called a "video scaler".
