Screen capture software for streaming video

Question

I need a software suggestion that would be the best option for a screen capture for a live, streaming video, like a webinar.

QUALITY IS IMPERATIVE! - The Higher the better.

What program should I use for this?

• It will not be needed to edit the video in any way, I only want to capture
• Price is not really a boundary, but it is not a defining factor.
• I do need sound and video capture, as well as the possible input I may have (using some form of microphone).
  • This should preferably capture on the same track also - I have had a bit of an issue with Bandicam at one point (free version) where the sound and video did not match up.

EDIT: I may have unfortunately been unclear in my request - I am actually looking to use this to record someone else's webinar. I will be watching this, and I would like to record it as well to review it at a later date. I am concerned about frame-drop, especially since the streaming will likely lose frames and quality, and then another screen-capture program will further lose frames and quality.
