Just after the 1.0 release, I did some prototyping for embedding Matterhorn 
content in Sakai.  I also wanted to show both streams simultaneously, so I 
added the ability to hide the branding on the standard watch page, and embed 
that instead.  It's not perfect, but it'll give you a more fully functioning 
Matterhorn player in an iframe.

To embed the stripped down watch page, modify the embed code's URL from this:

http://localhost:8080/engage/ui/embed.html?id={id}

to this:

http://localhost:8080/engage/ui/watch.html?id={id}&embed=true

I don't understand exactly what you are trying to do, but if you're looking for 
a feed for a series, it's already there:

localhost:8080/feeds/rss/2.0/series/{id}
