Since Google has introduced playable video on their Google Video search, one of the bigger complaints has been the lack of the ability to restrict video search results to contain only playable videos.

Evidently, Google has heard your cries. Citing numerous requests, Google has added radio buttons on their Google Video search, which allows users to restrict their search to playable videos only, or they can choose to include all videos (would a lack of playability still constitute the term "video"?) in the Google Video index.

In order to filter your results, all users have to do is select which radio box they want and their query results should reflect the selection (a quick search of "Family Guy" supports this claim).

Until yesterday, if users wanted to filter our non-playable videos (again, isn't this almost an oxymoron?), they had to use a script designed by third party developers.
