title: Qt check if external process crashes
body: <p>I'm building a failsafe application for professional video. The Qt application checks the 4 corners of the 2nd screen and if they are a certain RGB value (I use a special background) the Qt program knows it crashed so it sends a signal to the videomixer to fade to the other input.</p>
  
  <p>Now I also want to add a check to see if the video program didn't crash (it can be the video program doesn't respond but still shows an output so I can't see the desktop on the 2nd screen). I know I can use Qprocess to start an external process. It's not that easy to hook it up to a process that already runs.</p>
  
  <p>Now the question: how can I check if the program crashed (so "not responding") and see this as quick as possible so I can fade to the other video input. And what happens when my Qt program crashes, will it also exit the child process?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
