The ATEM Control Software (on Windows.. probably same on Mac) is 1360 x 680 pixels. So your Mac would not display the entire control surface.
It's absolutely possible to both control the ATEM and record the H.264 on the same computer. In fact when controlling the TVS the ATEM Control Software has an in-built recording panel that allows you to control the recording directly within that (no need to use the Media Express software separately)
EDIT: Oh... but you have a 1/ME? That doesn't have the in-built H.264 encoder. So you be using the standalone H.264 Pro Recorder of course. I'm not absolutely sure if that will be recognized by the ATEM Control Software. It might be anyway. If it isn't... you can always run Media Express to start the recording then minimize it. Saving the H.264 stream doesn't take a lot of hard work on the computer... so you should still be OK. Note of warning however... if you search here you will find reports of people who have experienced audio sync issues - and corrupted recordings. You might want to ensure you have a very reliable setup and possibly have multiple methods of recording your video.
